Njord model uses GNNs for probabilistic ocean forecasts

Researchers have developed Njord, a novel probabilistic graph neural network designed for more accurate ocean forecasting. This model integrates a deep latent variable framework with a graph neural network, allowing for efficient uncertainty estimation through sampling. Njord has demonstrated superior performance on both global and regional ocean forecasting tasks, outperforming deterministic machine learning baselines and achieving state-of-the-art results on the OceanBench benchmark, particularly in surface temperature prediction.

    Njord: A Probabilistic Graph Neural Network for Ensemble Ocean Forecasting

    arXiv:2605.15470v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Ocean dynamics are inherently chaotic, yet existing machine learning ocean models produce only deterministic forecasts. We introduce Njord, a probabilistic data-driven model for ocean forecasting, applicable to both global and r…
