Researchers have developed a new data-driven framework to improve the understanding of floating material transport, particularly for Sargassum seaweed. This method uses limited drifter observations and physically motivated diagnostics to learn corrections to existing circulation models. The framework was applied to Sargassum transport in the Puerto Rico region and the Gulf Stream, showing that the learned diagnostics provide valuable information beyond baseline circulation products, with varying degrees of success in extracting stable symbolic transport structures.
