This limitation is particularly pronounced in computational energy science, where multiscale models of porous-media flow, transport, and energy materials often make large snapshot datasets impractical. Proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) constructs compact reduced bases from solution snapshots, but it may exhibit limited out-of-sample predictive capability when the snapshots insufficiently sample the solution manifold. To address this limitation, we propose a spectral-subspace-augmented POD-Galerkin method (SS-POD) tailored to limited-data regimes. SS-POD starts from a problemadapted spectral approximation space, partitions it into orthogonal subspaces, and performs POD locally on the projected snapshot matrices. An energybalancing rule determines the spectral partition so that the resulting local POD problems are assigned comparable amounts of snapshot energy. For nonlinear parametrized PDEs, SS-POD is coupled with the discrete empirical interpolation method (DEIM) . Numerical experiments show that SS-POD improves out-of-sample accuracy over standard POD-Galerkin while retaining compact reduced bases in limited-snapshot regimes. In particular, for a Laplace–Beltrami problem on the unit sphere with only 5 snapshots, SS-POD achieves a relative error of 3 .9 × 10 −8 using 91 basis functions, whereas the standard POD error saturates at 7 .8 × 10 −4 and the spectral-Galerkin method requires 256 basis functions for comparable accuracy.

High-fidelity finite element, finite difference, and spectral discretizations can make such manyquery studies computationally expensive [17,21,48] . Similar bottlenecks arise in computational energy science, including subsurface flow, transport, and data-driven energy-materials modeling, where simulations and high-fidelity data generation often span multiple scales [69]. Reduced-order models (ROMs) reduce this cost by separating an offline basis-construction stage from a lowdimensional online solve. This strategy is effective when the solution manifold admits a compact approximation and the offline data sufficiently identify the relevant solution components [3,30,51] . When only a few high-fidelity snapshots are available, however, the reduced space may fail to capture components that are essential for out-of-sample prediction.  \nReduced basis methods (RBMs) and proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) are two widely used approaches for constructing reduced spaces. RBMs select parameter samples adaptively, often through greedy algorithms guided by a posteriori error estimators [4,50,53,54,56,67] .
