From fractions to fragments : Policy to practice through AI-driven multiscale spatial planning for groundwater nitrate management
Diffuse nitrate pollution remains a persistent threat to drinking-water resources, yet current predictive frameworks rarely capture how the spatial composition (land-cover fractions) and configuration (landscape fragmentation) of land systems jointly modulate leaching. This study presents a novel multiscale framework integrating hydro-climatic, soil and anthropogenic predictors with land-cover fra
