Hybrid NARX-LLM for Greenland Iceberg Discharge: Prompt-Driven Residual Correction

arXiv:2606.15288v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Greenland iceberg discharge exhibits complex nonlinear dynamics with limited observability, challenging traditional predictive models. We present a Hybrid NARX-LLM framework that combines a nonlinear autoregressive model with exogenous inputs (NARX) and a large language model (LLM) for residual correction. We further propose a Physics-Informed Prompt (PIP) method that transforms unstructured physical knowledge into structured prompts for zero-shot in-context reasoning. The primary objective is to explore the corrective potential of this framewo

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing sophistication of LLMs and the urgent need for better climate models are converging, making hybrid AI approaches for complex systems like iceberg discharge more viable now.

Why it’s important

This development indicates a powerful new method for integrating expert knowledge into complex predictive climate models, potentially improving accuracy crucial for policy and infrastructure planning.

What changes

Traditional physical models can now be significantly enhanced by the interpretive and pattern-matching capabilities of LLMs, enabling more robust predictions in areas with 'limited observability'.
