TianJi:An autonomous AI meteorologist for discovering physical mechanisms in atmospheric science

ArXi:2603.27738v1 Announce Type: new Artificial intelligence (AI) has achieved breakthroughs comparable to traditional numerical models in data-driven weather forecasting, yet it remains essentially statistical fitting and struggles to uncover the physical causal mechanisms of the atmosphere. Physics-oriented mechanism research still heavily relies on domain knowledge and cumbersome engineering operations of human scientists, becoming a bottleneck restricting the efficiency of Earth system science exploration.
