The Earth Sciences industry faces a new challenge - the need for accurate, efficient, and reliable methods to monitor and predict geological phenomena and environmental changes. As climate change, earthquakes, and other natural disasters become more frequent and severe, the necessity for advanced tools and techniques is paramount. Traditional methods often fall short in providing the precision and speed required to address these critical issues. Geologists and earth scientists who are grappling with the urgent problem of utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to revolutionize their field, will find the solution within the pages of Novel AI Applications for Advancing Earth Sciences. This book offers the research community concepts expanding upon the fusion of AI technology with earth sciences. By leveraging advanced AI tools, such as convolutional neural networks, support vector machines, artificial neural networks, and the potential of remote sensing satellites, this book transforms the identification of geological features, geological mapping, soil classification, and gas detection. Scientists can now predict earthquakes and assess the probability of climate change with unprecedented accuracy. Additionally, the book explains how the optimization of algorithms for specific tasks substantially reduces the time complexity of earth observations, leading to an unprecedented leap in accuracy and efficiency. The book goes beyond academic insights, and extends its reach to real-world applications. It empowers scholars, researchers, students, and practitioners to monitor climate change, evaluate carbon footprints, and adapt to changes in land use. Furthermore, it plays a pivotal role in optimizing renewable energy production, ensuring the world's transition to clean, reliable energy sources. The data obtained from Earth observation satellites can be harnessed for a multitude of on-ground applications, ranging from agriculture and forestry to mining, water management, rural and urban development, and more. In a world where AI meets earth sciences, this book provides many innovative solutions to the challenges faced by academicians and researchers, illuminating the path toward a more informed future.
