Biogeochemical Reaction Network Simulator (BRNS) model code and output files for the manuscript “Silicon cycling from ice-sheet to coastal ocean: insights from isotope geochemistry” by K. Hendry, et al., submitted to Nature Communications Earth & Environment (February 2025).

Output files for three stations (Core A, B and C for inner fjord, mid fjord and outer/shelf environment respectively). Steady state site specific model code and Maple scripts are available via GitHub (https://github.com/kathen-28Si/GlacialSynthesis_Si_BRNS_Hendry_etal/tree/main).
