用气象情景模拟植被变化,支持多条件预测。
VegSim: A Geospatial World Model for Scenario-Conditioned Vegetation Simulation

- 基于卫星数据和气象输入,构建可控制的植被动态模型。
- 在欧洲多场景下模拟植被响应,结果与已知气候敏感性一致。
- 无需额外标注即可实现不同气象条件下的植被推演,适合气候研究者。
气候变化下植被监测不仅需预测未来状态,还需评估不同气象情景的影响。现有预报模型仅基于实际观测天气,无法回答情景依赖问题。本文提出VegSim,一种用于情景条件植被仿真的地理空间世界模型。该模型从稀疏的卫星NDVI历史、历史气象协变量和静态空间上下文中推断潜在植被状态,通过递归潜在动力学在未来的气象强迫下向前传播,并在每个提前期解码预测的NDVI分位数。由于未来气象作为可控输入,同一训练模型可同时支持基于真实天气的概率预测和用户自定义气象条件下的条件仿真,无需对情景响应进行监督。在GreenEarthNet上评估显示,模型在分布内及空间、时间、联合时空偏移下均表现优异,优于时序与地球观测预测基线,且模型结构紧凑。进一步在欧洲四类气象情景下模拟植被响应,在法国2022年夏季案例中,生成的空间连贯模式与温度和降水敏感性相符。代码已公开于https://github.com/arco-group/vegsim。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Vegetation monitoring under climate stress requires answering not only how it will evolve given the expected weather, but how it would respond to alternative meteorological conditions. Forecasting models return the expected vegetation state for the observed weather and cannot answer these scenario-conditioned questions, because future weather is fixed to the recorded trajectory. We present VegSim, a geospatial world model for scenario-conditioned vegetation simulation. VegSim infers a latent vegetation state from sparse satellite-derived NDVI histories, past meteorological covariates, and static spatial context, propagates it forward under future weather forcing through recurrent latent dynamics, and decodes predictive NDVI quantiles at each lead time. Because future forcing enters as a controllable input, the same trained model supports probabilistic forecasting under observed weather and conditional simulation under user-defined meteorological forcing, without supervision on scenario responses. We evaluate VegSim on GreenEarthNet across in-distribution data and spatial, temporal, and joint spatial-temporal shift, where it achieves strong point and probabilistic accuracy against time series and Earth observation forecasting baselines while using a compact architecture. We then simulate vegetation responses across Europe under four meteorological scenarios, and in a France summer 2022 case study, obtaining spatially coherent patterns consistent with known sensitivity to temperature and precipitation.
