Abstract:< /p>\n

Process based marine ecosystem models such as Atlantis Provide hig h fidelity simulations of species interactions and environmental dynamics\ , but their computational cost limits their use in real time forecasting a nd large scale scenario analysis. This study proposes a deep learning base d surrogate modeling framework to emulate Atlantis simulations and enable efficient prediction of marine framework to emulate Atlantis simulations a nd enable efficient prediction of marine biomass dynamics in the Northeast U.S. Large Marine Ecosystem. Unlike traditional approximation approaches\ , the proposed method focuses on learning spatio temporal dependencies dir ectly from simulation outputs. Atlantis data spanning 1964 - 2020 across m ultiple guilds and spatial polygons are structured into temporal sequences incorporating environmental drivers such as temperature and salinity. A B idirectional Long Short Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) architecture is employed to capture both forward and backward temporal relationships and model nonline ar ecosystem behavior. The surrogate achieves strong predictive performanc e\, with an R2 score of 0.90 on held out test data\, while maintaining con sistency across ecological groupings. In addition to accuracy\, the model significantly reduces computational overhead compared to full Atlantis sim ulations\, enabling rapid multi step forecasting and scalable exploration of management scenarios.
