Artificial intelligence for geoscience: Progress, challenges, and perspectives

This paper explores the evolution of geoscientific inquiry, tracing the progression from traditional physics-based models to modern data-driven approaches facilitated by significant advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and data collection techniques. Traditional models, which are grounded in physical and numerical frameworks, provide robust explanations by explicitly reconstructing underlying physical processes. However, their limitations in comprehensively capturing Earth's complexities and uncertaintie…

Current reading — gain

Data-driven ML and DL models can leverage extensive geoscience data to glean insights without exhaustive theoretical knowledge, and hybrid physics-guided models show enhanced efficiency with reduced training data needs.

Current reading — problem

AI models in geoscience are hindered by data scarcity, computational demands, data privacy concerns, and black-box opacity, while traditional physics models struggle to capture Earth's complexities.

What this doesn’t fix

Integration is constrained by data scarcity, high computational demands, data privacy concerns, and the black-box nature of AI models.

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0370 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
