Advancing subseasonal forecasting with machine learning
Decision-makers rely on weather forecasts to plant crops, manage wildfires, allocate water and energy and prepare for weather extremes1-3. Today, such forecasts enjoy unprecedented accuracy as far as 2 weeks thanks to steady advances in physics-based dynamical models and data-driven artificial intelligence models4-10. However, model skill drops precipitously at subseasonal timescales (2-6 weeks ahead) due to compounding errors, systemic model biases and the chaotic nature of the atmosphere11-15. To counter this…
A machine learning bias-correction layer doubled the subseasonal skill of ECMWF's AI model and beat leading operational and team-built systems in a 2025 real-time competition.
The benefits for agriculture, energy management and disaster preparedness in vulnerable communities are described only as potential, not as demonstrated outcomes.

Certified into the record
How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1465 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
