Revolutionizing Marine Management in the South China Sea
China unveiled its groundbreaking Feiyu-1.0 AI model on February 7, 2026, in Guangzhou, marking a leap forward in intelligent ocean forecasting. Developed by the South China Sea Institute of Oceanology (SCSIO) and China University of Petroleum (East China), this two-way coupled air-sea system is tailored for the South China Sea’s unique conditions.
Precision Forecasting for Multiple Sectors
The model excels in predicting sea surface temperature, salinity, and large-scale circulation patterns with unprecedented accuracy. Researchers confirm its applications span typhoon prediction for disaster prevention, safer maritime navigation for fishermen, and enhanced ecosystem management for coral reefs and mangrove forests.
Global Scientific Collaboration
Feiyu-1.0’s dynamic ocean knowledge graphs are set to assist international research institutions and universities, while real-time environmental simulations provide early warnings for ecological protection. Experts at the launch event praised the system as a "new paradigm" merging AI innovation with climate resilience strategies.
