Machine learning models show varied performance in emulating stratospheric warming events

Researchers have investigated how different machine learning architectures impact the emulation of sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) events. Using idealised Isca simulations, they found that while convolutional, transformer, and graph-based models performed similarly during quiet stratospheric periods, their performance diverged significantly when SSW-like variability was present. The study highlights explicit three-dimensional vertical coupling as a crucial inductive bias for accurately emulating stratospheric dynamics, though it also notes that low forecast error does not always equate to physically accurate wave-mean-flow interactions.
