Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a stochastic population-based optimization algorithm inspired by the interactions of individuals in a social world. This algorithm is widely applied in different fields of water resources problems. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the basic PSO algorithm search strategy and PSO’s applications and performance analysis in water resources engineering optimization problems. Our literature review revealed 22 different varieties of the PSO algorithm. The characteristics of each PSO variety together with their applications in different fields of water resources engineering (e.g., reservoir operation, rainfall–runoff modeling, water quality modeling, and groundwater modeling) are highlighted. The performances of different PSO variants were compared with other evolutionary algorithms (EAs) and mathematical optimization methods. The review evaluates the capability and comparative performance of PSO variants over conventional EAs (e.g., simulated annealing, differential evolution, genetic algorithm, and shark algorithm) and mathematical methods (e.g., support vector machine and differential dynamic programming) in terms of proper convergence to optimal Pareto fronts, faster convergence rate, and diversity of computed solutions.
