A socio-technical framework for analyzing crop advisors' preferences for AI-based decision support systems
Exploring relational farming futures for responsible innovation in precision agriculture through Q-method and speculative design
This article draws on concepts of speculative design and responsible innovation to examine the possible impacts of data-driven precision agriculture on farmers and farm work. We use an innovative mixed-method approach to research design. Using artistic depiction of futures of precision agriculture in design workshop and in-depth semistructured interviews conducted with the farmers in Vermont and South Dakota, we explain how farmers perceive diffe…
Using Spatial Technologies to Assess Risk Factors for Diarrheal Disease Under Environmental Variability in Bangladesh: A Machine Learning Study
These findings underscore the importance of scale-sensitive approaches when assessing environmental health risks and developing climate-adaptive public health strategies
Rethinking ‘responsibility’ in precision agriculture innovation: Lessons from an interdisciplinary research team
We examine the interactions, decisions, and evaluations of an interdisciplinary team of researchers tasked with developing an artificial intelligence-based agricultural decision support system that can provide farmers site-specific information about managing nutrients on their land. We answer the following research questions: (1) How does a relational perspective help an interdisciplinary team conceptualize ‘responsibility' in a project that deve…
Spatial targeting of floodplain restoration to equitably mitigate flood risk
Optimizing wetland restoration to improve water quality at a regional scale
Excessive phosphorus (P) export to aquatic ecosystems can lead to impaired water quality. There is a growing interest among watershed managers in using restored wetlands to retain P from agricultural landscapes and improve water quality. We develop a novel framework for prioritizing wetland restoration at a regional scale. The framework uses an ecosystem service model and an optimization algorithm that maximizes P reduction for given levels of re…
Coupled impacts of climate and land use change across a river–lake continuum: Insights from an integrated assessment model of Lake Champlain’s Missisquoi Basin, 2000–2040
Global climate change (GCC) is projected to bring higher-intensity precipitation and higher-variability temperature regimes to the Northeastern United States. The interactive effects of GCC with anthropogenic land use and land cover changes (LULCCs) are unknown for watershed level hydrological dynamics and nutrient fluxes to freshwater lakes. Increased nutrient fluxes can promote harmful algal blooms, also exacerbated by warmer water temperatures…
