a Contour plot of correlation skills for CTEFNet across calendar months during the test period (1980–2021) at different lead times. The horizontal axis denotes the forecast lead month, while the vertical axis represents the calendar month. b Same as a, but showing the correlation skill difference between CTEFNet and CNN. c Same as a, but showing the correlation skill difference between CTEFNet and Geoformer.
