Short summary
We developed a generalized emulator of atmospheric transport (FootNet v3) trained over the United States, enabling the emulation of both surface & column-averaged footprints at kilometer-scale resolution. We demonstrate that FootNet v3 generalizes to previously unseen regions and meteorological conditions, enabling accurate out-of-sample simulation of atmospheric transport. Flux inversion case studies show that FootNet matches or exceeds the performance of full-physics models in unseen regions.
