Model output used in the manuscript "Influence of seasonal variability in flux attenuation on global organic carbon fluxes and nutrient distributions"

This *.rar file contains the model output from seasonal variability experiments using the NPZD-DOP GEOMAR biogeochemical model (Kriest et al., 2010) coupled with the MITgcm 2.8deg ocean circulation via the transport matrix method (Khatiwala et al., 2005; Khatiwala, 2007, 2018).

These model outputs are presented and discussed in the article "Influence of seasonal variability in flux attenuation on global organic carbon fluxes and nutrient distributions", published by Global Biogeochemical Cycles (de Melo Viríssimo et al., 2022). The manuscript also describe the experiments performed, the parameter values used and the modifications done in the original model.

All files uploaded were generated from simulations run by the authors, except: the grid file and salinity, which came with the model; and the density fields, who were computed from the MITgcm 2.8deg transport matrix by Rafaelle Bernadello, using a TEOS-10 matlab routine (http://www.teos-10.org/).

For specific information about each file uploaded, please refer to the README file. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
