The use of neural networks to emulate the dynamics of the Earth system (ocean, atmosphere) is of critical importance since it enables efficient and operational forecast, data assimilation, and affordable uncertainty quantification. This field has been very productive in numerical weather forecasts but relatively fewer results were demonstrated in the oceans. This paper could be a reference for mesoscale ocean dynamics emulation.

Short summary
The Gulf Stream is a prominent oceanic feature in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean that influences weather patterns in the Northern Hemisphere and is notoriously difficult to predict. We present a machine learning model, OceanNet, to predict the position of the Gulf Stream months in advance. OceanNet is able to perform a 120 d prediction 4 000 000 times faster than traditional methods of ocean modeling with great accuracy.
