Understanding and Predicting Geomagnetic Secular Variation via Data Assimilation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
: Geomagnetic data assimilation is a recently established research discipline in geomagnetism. It aims to optimally combine geomagnetic observations and numerical geodynamo models to better estimate the dynamic state of the Earth’s outer core, and to predict geomagnetic secular variation. Over the past decade, rapid advances have been made in geomagnetic data assimilation on various fronts by several research groups around the globe, such as using geomagnetic data assimilation to understand and interpret the observed geomagnetic secular variation, estimating part of the core state that is not observable on the Earth’s surface, and making geomagnetic forecasts on multi-year time scales. In parallel, efforts have also been made on proxy systems for understanding fundamental statistical properties of geomagnetic data assimilation, and for developing algorithms tailored specifically for geomagnetic data assimilation. In this chapter, we provide a comprehensive overview of these advances, as well as some of the immediate challenges of geomagnetic data assimilation, and possible solutions and pathways to move forward.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
