HClimRep‑Ocean is a machine‑learning emulator that operates directly on the native unstructured mesh of the FESOM2 ocean model, trained on a 209‑year AWI‑CM3 control run and run without atmospheric forcing except at initialization. It shows strong skill for current forecasts at 30‑day lead times, outperforming all references, while temperature and salinity forecasts are best served by a damped‑anomaly persistence approach. In independent OceanBench testing, a reanalysis‑trained variant achieves the lowest RMSE against GLORYS reanalysis, demonstrating the competitiveness of the native‑mesh approach.

As deep learning for physical systems continues to grow in popularity, efforts to improve generalizability have primarily focused on designing architectures that embed physical constraints. However, for machine-learning surrogate climate models (emulators), we show that the low structural diversity in existing scenarios commonly used to generate training data places a ceiling on predictive skill.
Neptune is an end‑to‑end data‑driven framework that emulates global ocean and sea‑ice states for subseasonal‑to‑seasonal (S2S) forecasting up to 60 days. It combines Convolutional Neural Networks and Spherical Fourier Neural Operators to capture both local features and global cross‑scale interactions, producing daily outputs for temperature, salinity, currents, sea‑surface height, and sea‑ice metrics at 1° and 0.25° resolution. Evaluated against metrics such as RMSE, CRPS, ACC, and climate indices (ENSO, IOD), Neptune reproduces the spatio‑temporal evolution of oceanic fields and remains stable over long timescales.

Atmospheric predictability declines rapidly beyond the next ten days, such that forecasts at longer lead times primarily convey large-scale trends rather than specific states. Yet in a warming world, improving early warnings of extreme heat is an increasingly critical challenge.
