🚀Architecture

TritonCast Architecture
Figure: The V-cycle architecture of TritonCast. It integrates a Multi-Grid Hierarchy for multi-scale processing, a stable Latent Dynamical Core (LDC) for long-term evolution, and Skip-Connections to retain high-fidelity details. This design effectively mitigates error accumulation in long-term forecasts.

🌟 Highlights

TritonCast establishes a new state-of-the-art in long-term Earth system forecasting. Our key contributions include:

  • 🌀 Unprecedented Long-term Stability: Achieves stable, year-long, purely autoregressive global atmospheric forecasts without any drift or model collapse, accurately capturing seasonal cycles.
  • 🌊 High-Fidelity Ocean Forecasting: Extends the skillful forecast of ocean eddies to an unprecedented 120 days, preserving fine-scale structures that other models lose.
  • 🏆 State-of-the-Art Performance: Matches or exceeds leading AI models (like Pangu-Weather, GraphCast) and operational systems on the WeatherBench 2 benchmark for medium-range forecasting.
  • 🌐 Zero-Shot Generalization: Demonstrates a remarkable ability to generalize across resolutions—a model trained on 0.25° data can produce physically realistic forecasts on unseen 0.125° grids, proving it has learned the underlying physical laws.
