AI Maps Nitrate Pollution Across Groundwater at Multiple Scales

Researchers have developed an AI-powered planning tool that bridges the gap between national water policies and on-the-ground nitrate management. The technology enables authorities and utilities to target contamination hotspots more precisely, potentially reducing treatment costs while protecting drinking water supplies across fragmented aquifer systems.
