Inteligencia Artificial, Derecho Ambiental, Gobernanza Sostenible, Medio AmbienteResumo
El uso de la inteligencia artificial (IA) en el Derecho ambiental ha emergido como una herramienta clave para modernizar la regulación y la gobernanza ecológica. Este estudio bibliométrico analiza la evolución, tendencias y vacíos en la producción científica sobre el uso de IA como instrumento regulatorio en contextos ambientales, a partir de 63 artículos indexados en Scopus entre 2016 y 2024. Se aplicó una estrategia de búsqueda avanzada y se utilizaron indicadores como volumen de publicaciones, países, instituciones, revistas, áreas temáticas y co-ocurrencia de palabras clave. El análisis reveló un crecimiento acelerado en los últimos años, con predominio de China y Estados Unidos. Las temáticas más abordadas giran en torno a la gobernanza algorítmica, el monitoreo ambiental automatizado y la gestión de la contaminación urbana. No obstante, se identifican vacíos importantes: escasa representación de estudios empíricos, concentración geográfica de la producción, y poca reflexión crítica sobre el impacto ambiental del desarrollo de la propia IA. Se concluye que, para avanzar hacia una regulación ambiental digital justa y sostenible, es necesario fortalecer los marcos normativos, ampliar la inclusión regional y fomentar investigaciones interdisciplinarias.
