Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.Abstract We propose a novel physics‐aware sampling framework to extract the most informative training instances (critical points) from the conventional 70% training data set using six diversified sampling strategies. These critical points are used to train a spectral Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) augmented with a lagged term to predict subsurface soil ...
