Accurate gust forecasting under typhoon conditions remains challenging due to the highly non-stationary and multi-scale characteristics of extreme wind fluctuations. Existing deep learning models often struggle to simultaneously capture long-term trends and rapid local variations, resulting in degraded performance during extreme events. We propose WDANet, a frequency-aware forecasting framework that integrates stationary wavelet decomposition, a Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM) strategy, and a dual-branch encoder-decoder architecture, enabling separate modeling of trend and fluctuation components. Taking the offshore regions of the Western Pacific in China as an example, we conduct fine-grid wind gust prediction research. The results demonstrate that WDANet shows advantages for short lead times under the experimental setting across a 24-h forecasting horizon and achieves higher prediction accuracy than ECMWF-HRES within the first 6 h. During extreme wind events, WDANet more accurately captures gust peaks and attains the best RMSE and MAE performance. These results highlight its potential for offshore wind power operation, disaster warning, and risk mitigation.
Cyclicity and trend are important components of time series data and many studies based on cyclicity and trend have achieved good results in long-term time series forecasting. However, we believe that current work neglects the influence of real-world inter-channel correlations in time series data which leads to suboptimal predictions. Furthermore, these models rely on complex designs to capture diverse information so that resulting in low computational efficiency. To address this challenge, we propose McWC, a long-term time series forecasting model that separately models the cyclicity, trend, and inter-channel correlations. Specifically, McWC first decouples cyclical information from data using a multi-layer cyclicity construction module. Then, it extracts inter-channel correlations using multi-layer perceptron. Next, it models and fuses the multi-layer high-frequency and low-frequency information from data using a multi-level wavelet decomposition module. Finally, it aggregates the results of different components to obtain the output. Simultaneously, we decouple intra-channel autocorrelations by calculating a loss function in the frequency domain. Experiments on six real-world datasets demonstrate that McWC achieves state-of-the-art performance, exhibiting excellent computational efficiency and historical information extraction capabilities.
While global data-driven models excel at predicting continuous atmospheric variables, three-dimensional hydrometeor forecasting remains challenging due to the zero-inflated, long-tailed distributions of these variables. Standard deep learning optimization often yields overly smooth forecasts, attenuating extreme events and spatial textures. We propose PredHydro-Net, a physics-guided dual-decoding framework that mitigates this smoothing. To resolve multi-variable optimization conflicts, it employs a decoupled architecture where macroscopic thermodynamic and dynamic fields unidirectionally modulate hydrometeor generation. By integrating wavelet-based frequency decoupling, spectral amplitude matching, and adversarial training, the model achieves a favorable trade-off between quantitative accuracy and spatial fidelity. In a 72-h global evaluation, PredHydro-Net outperforms both spatiotemporal deep learning baselines (Earthformer and PredRNNv2) and the operational Global Forecast System (GFS) in extreme-event detection and spectral representation. Furthermore, it demonstrates strong climatological consistency with Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite retrievals. The model reasonably reproduces the three-dimensional cloud structures in extreme weather events, such as Hurricane Ian. Feature attribution confirms its dependence on physical precursors such as relative humidity and wind convergence, offering a robust, physics-informed approach to long-tailed atmospheric prediction.
