The scouring around bridge foundations is a significant concern in civil engineering. Several research has been conducted experimentally and numerically to study the maximum scour depth around the foundations of a bridge in open channel conditions. In cold regions, where ice forms on lakes, reservoirs, and rivers, the interaction between ice and hydraulic structures is further complicated. The flow distribution varies significantly leading to deeper and larger scouring around bridge foundations. The present study took advantage of the data-driven methods to investigate the impacts of ice conditions to maximum scour depth. In total, 96 datasets were extracted from previous studies. The M5 decision tree, Genetic Expression Programming(GEP), and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) were used in data analysis. The models were developed using the train-and-test approach to avoid over-training. The mentioned developed models were further compared with a previous empirical equation associated with the prediction of maximum scour depth around piers under ice conditions. Finally, a sensitivity analysis method was applied to evaluate the performance of the data-driven models. It was found that the approaching velocity and pier diameter play the most crucial role in determination of the maximum scour depth. The result is generally in agreement with those of previous experimental studies.

The recent increase in algal blooms in lakes, potentially exacerbated by climate warming, is of global concern. However, a spatially and temporally detailed characterization of algal bloom trends at a global scale has been lacking, posing challenges to definitively attribute the increase trend to warming as a primary driver. Here, we used daily MODIS satellite observations from 2003 to 2022 to analyze algal bloom trends in 1956 large freshwater lakes worldwide. Among these lakes, 620 have experienced algal bloom events in over half of the years during the past two decades, with an upward trend in bloom frequency observed in504 lakes. This trend is particularly prominent in subtropical regions and has become most pronounced after 2015. The global median annual bloom frequency has significantly increased at a rate of +1.8%/yr over the past two decades, showing a significant correlation with air temperatures(r2= 0.43, P < 0.05).Furthermore, in 44.8% of the bloom-affected lakes, we observed a strong correlation between air temperature and bloom frequency. Our study helps clarify the factors contributing to the global expansion of algal blooms and emphasizes the urgent need to recognize and address this growing environmental challenge within the context of climate warming.
