Abstract: The rapid development and high efficiency of artificial intelligence (AI) have made it increasingly popular in the field of scientific research. Over the past decade, there has been an exponential growth in the application of AI in environmental science. One of the main advantages of using artificial intelligence is its ability to efficiently analyze and process large amounts of data, which is a crucial issue faced by environmental science research. Therefore, the application of artificial intelligence can greatly promote the development of environmental science and engineering. This paper reviews the latest applications of artificial intelligence in the field of environmental science, discusses its advantages and existing problems, as well as the opportunities and challenges it brings to environmental science.
