description Intensified global climate change and human activities lead to increasingly severe tidal saltwater intrusion in the Pearl River Estuary, and the water supply security of coastal cities is under significant threat. This study employed long short-term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent unit (GRU) networks to forecast and validate hourly salinity data at the Pinggang Station in the Modaomen Waterway from 2019 to 2023. The results indicate: ① Both the LSTM and GRU models demonstrate strong performance in forecasting tidal saltwater intrusion. Compared to the LSTM model, the GRU model exhibits higher forecasting accuracy, smaller prediction errors, and faster computational speed, with its performance advantages being more pronounced in short-term forecasts. ② The GRU model achieves a forecasting accuracy of above 0.8 for future 1–24 hours, with the accuracy for future 1–6 hours generally reaching 0.9.
