AUWave: A Data-Driven Model for Reconstructing Significant Wave Heights Using Sparse Observations

AUWave is a hybrid deep‑learning framework that reconstructs high‑resolution regional significant wave height (SWH) fields from sparse buoy observations. By combining a station‑wise encoder with a multi‑scale U‑Net enhanced by self‑attention, it outperforms a baseline model, especially when more than one buoy is available, and identifies critical anchor stations through buoy ablation studies. Cross‑basin tests in the Atlantic and Pacific demonstrate the model’s robustness and portability, suggesting its applicability for operational ocean monitoring and data assimilation.

SwAIther-Precip: Lead-Time-Aware Bias Correction Enables Kilometer-Scale Downscaling of Global AI Precipitation Forecasts over Switzerland

arXiv:2605. 16163v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Skillful medium-range precipitation forecasting at kilometer scale remains challenging over complex terrain because precipitation arises from multiscale nonlinear processes that global models cannot explicitly resolve at affordable cost.
