New AI model S2S-JEPA improves long-range weather forecasting

Researchers have developed S2S-JEPA, a new AI model designed to improve weather forecasting accuracy on subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) timescales, which typically range from two weeks to two months. Unlike previous AI weather models that struggle beyond two weeks due to predicting unpredictable fine details, S2S-JEPA focuses on forecasting only the stable, predictable components of weather patterns. This approach, inspired by computer vision's Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA), allows S2S-JEPA to match the skill of established physics-based ensemble models and even surpass them at longer forecast horizons. AI

IMPACT This model could enhance long-range weather predictions, benefiting sectors like agriculture, energy, and water management.

    S2S-JEPA: Predicting the Predictable at Subseasonal-to-Seasonal Timescales

    arXiv:2610.03106v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The subseasonal-to-seasonal (S2S) timescale, roughly from two weeks to two months ahead, is a critical forecast window for sectors such as agriculture, energy, and water management. Yet, it is widely known as the `predictability d…
