Plymouth sound and surroundings surface temperature and salinity from FVCOM model

<p>Output of surface temperature and salinity from a high-resolution model of the Plymouth sound and surrounding areas, monthly files covering from May - October 2016. The model setup is as for the operational model (https://www.plymouthmarineforecasts.org/) except with observed river flows and boundary forcing was bias corrected against observations from the L4 buoy timeseries (https://www.westernchannelobservatory.org.uk/). This dataset was used in calculations of coastal CO2 flux in:</p> <p>bg-2021-166<br> Title: Tidal mixing of estuarine and coastal waters in the Western English Channel is a control on spatial and temporal variability in seawater CO2<br> Author(s): Richard Peter Sims et al.</p> <p>The code and model mesh data required to create plots therein are also included in plot_data.zip</p>
