description Chemometrics has emerged as a powerful approach for deciphering complex environmental systems, enabling the identification of pollution sources through the integration of faunal community structures with physicochemical parameters and in situ analytical data. Leveraging advanced technologies—including satellite imaging, drone surveillance, sensor networks, and Internet of Things platforms—chemometric methods facilitate real-time and longitudinal monitoring of both pristine and anthropogenically influenced ecosystems. This review provides a critical and comprehensive overview of the foundational principles underpinning chemometric applications in environmental science. Emphasis is placed on identifying pollution sources, their ecological distribution, and potential impacts on human health. Furthermore, the study highlights the role of chemometrics in interpreting multidimensional datasets, thereby enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of modern environmental monitoring systems across diverse geographic and industrial contexts. A comparative analysis of analytical techniques, target analytes, application domains, and the strengths and limitations of selected in situ and remote sensing-based chemometric approaches is also presented.
