Abstract: We describe the real-time forecasting of September 2024 Arctic sea ice extent using a theory-guided machine learning method based on data-adaptive harmonic decomposition and frequency-based nonlinear stochastic modeling, as part of the Sea Ice Outlook. Compared to standard statistical and machine learning models, this method adeptly accounts for non-linear behavior, effectively incorporates memory effects, and handles a wide range of time scale variations, from synoptic (stochastic-like) weather effects to low-frequency (red-noise like) variability, significantly enhancing the accuracy and reliability of sea ice prediction.
