只处理四分之一的气象数据点，却让天气预测更准更快。

Existing ViT-based weather forecasting models apply uniform computation across all spatial tokens, even though nearby atmospheric grid points often contain similar values and large regions evolve smoothly over time. This makes much of the intermediate per-token computation redundant. Standard token-efficiency methods, such as pruning or merging, reduce cost by removing or fusing tokens. However, weather forecasting is a spatiotemporal dense prediction problem in which a history of atmospheric states must be mapped to future values on the original latitude-longitude grid. Thus, every grid cell must retain a physically meaningful representation, especially under autoregressive rollout. We introduce Sparse-Reslim, a parameter-free plug-in routing module that makes sparse token processing compatible with this fixed-grid requirement. Sparse-Reslim routes only 25% of spatial tokens through the expensive middle transformer blocks and treats those blocks as residual updates: it computes the change produced for the routed tokens and scatters only this delta back to the full sequence. Unselected tokens keep their pre-routing representations exactly, so no grid cell is dropped or replaced by a mask token, and no fusion layer or additional parameters are introduced. Across ERA5 resolutions up to the operational 0.25\textdegree{} standard and two model families, a deterministic Transformer and a diffusion model, Sparse-Reslim improves forecast accuracy on every evaluated variable while substantially reducing cost: training is about 2.5x faster in the main settings and reaches 3.18x speedup at 0.25\textdegree{}, with over 2.2x lower peak memory. A controlled decomposition shows that the accuracy gain comes primarily from sparse routing itself, while random token selection provides an additional regularization benefit without selector overhead.
