Diel DO time series denoised were modeled using nine temporal artificial neural networks (ANNs) as a function of water level, water temperature, electrical conductivity, pH, day of year, and hour. Our results showed that time-lag recurrent network (TLRN) using denoised data emulated diel DO dynamics better than the best-performing TLRN using the original data, time-delay neural network (TDNN), and recurrent network (RNN). Daubechies basis dealt with diel DO data slightly better than the other bases given its coefficient of determination (r (2) = 87.1 %), while symmlet performed slightly better than the other bases in terms of root mean square error (RMSE = 1.2 ppm) and mean absolute error (MAE = 0.9 ppm).eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDiel DynamicsDiscrete Wavelet TransformSurface WaterTime SeriesArticle10.1007/s10661-013-3476-9186315831591241007992-s2.0-84895793454Q2WOS:000330715300021Q2
