Lagrangian Sequestration Efficiency Trajectories and Extracted Particle Metrics – 500m Y15 & Y16

A dataset of Lagrangian trajectories used to estimate North Atlantic sequestration efficiency and extracted metrics for the re-entrained and sequestered particles. All variables have long names and units. These files have been used for the analysis in Baker et al. ‘Biological carbon pump sequestration efficiency in the North Atlantic: a leaky or a long-term sink?’ with further information about the methodology available in the paper. Due to the size of the datasets, each DOI only contains two files. This dataset contains the 500m particles releases for the years 2010 (Y15) and 2011 (Y16).
