Atmospheric forcings are significant physical factors that influence the variation of sea surface temperature (SST) and are often used as essential input variables for ocean numerical models. However, their contribution to the prediction of SST based on machine-learning methods still needs to be tested. This study presents a prediction model for SST in the East China Sea (ECS) using two machine-learning methods: Random Forest and SA-ConvLSTM algorithms. According to the Random Forest feature importance scores and correlation coefficients R, 2 m air temperature and longwave radiation were selected as the two most important key atmospheric factors that can affect the SST prediction performance of machine-learning methods. Four datasets were constructed as input to SA-ConvLSTM: SST-only, SST-T2m, SST-LWR, and SST-T2m-LWR. Using the SST-T2m and SST-LWR, the prediction skill of the model can be improved by about 9.9% and 9.43% for the RMSE and by about 8.97% and 8.21% for the MAE, respectively. Using the SST-T2m-LWR dataset, the model’s prediction skill can be improved by 10.75% for RMSE and 9.06% for MAE. The SA-ConvLSTM can represent the SST in ECS well, but with the highest RMSE and AE in summer. The findings of the presented study requires much more exploration in future studies. |
