Short summary
With the objective of tackling the problem of inaccurate long-term ENSO forecasts, a new forecasting model of the SSTA field was proposed based on a dynamic system reconstruction idea and the principle of self-memorization. The improved model was used to forecast the SSTA field. The forecasted SSTA fields of three types of events are accurate. The improved model also has good forecasting results of the ENSO index. So our model has an advantage in ENSO prediction precision and length.
