PurposeTaking into account great spatial heterogeneity in soil environments is essential to carrying out an accurate soil contamination assessment at the regional scale. Although there are numerous methods for distinguishing between natural and anthropogenic element contents, few studies focus on on-site determination methods, with few site-specific and sensitive references available. In this study, site background concentration is estimated as an on-site reference for soil contamination assessment.Materials and methodsHere, a support vector machine (SVM) is used to predict the site background concentration based on nine influential factors of soil formation. Three machine-learning algorithms, which are considered efficient in solving optimization problems, are used to select the optimal parameters of the SVM. These three algorithms are as follows: (1) a grid search algorithm, (2) a genetic algorithm, and (3) a particle swarm optimization algorithm.Results and discussionModel performances were evaluated using squared correlation coefficients and root-mean-square error. Their subsequent application to soil contamination assessment demonstrated that indiscriminate use of a consistent reference across all soil types in an environmental site assessment may result in under- and over-estimation. These problems are likely to be resolved by using site background concentration predictions to establish contaminated versus un-contaminated regions.ConclusionsWe conclude that a SVM based on factors of influence for soil formation is an effective method for site background concentration prediction and substantially improved the suitability of background references at our study site. Slight modifications would make this approach applicable to other regions and soil types.
