1/8˚ resolution MOM6-COBALT physical and biogeochemical diagnostics interpolated to 1˚, monthly means between 1965-2017

<p>Data was extracted from a global grid run with coupled ocean-ice model configured using the Modular Ocean Model 6 (MOM6, <a href="https://github.com/NOAA-GFDL/MOM6">https://github.com/NOAA-GFDL/MOM6</a> ) and Sea Ice Simulator (SIS2) developed at the NOAA Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (Adcroft et al., 2019). The horizontal resolution of the grid is 1/8˚, which is considered eddying and no eddy parameterization was included. Vertically, the model uses 75 hybrid vertical-sigma2 layer coordinates that is remapped onto 35 World Ocean Atlas/Coupled Model Intercomparison Project standard depth levels. The atmospheric forcing was derived from the Japanese 55-year Reanalysis version 1.5 (JRA55 1.5, <a href="https://jra.kishou.go.jp/JRA-55/index_en.html#jra-55">https://jra.kishou.go.jp/JRA-55/index_en.html#jra-55</a>). The model is driven by river freshwater runoff from a monthly climatology derived from Dai and Trenberth (2002) and Dai et al. (2009), which can be assessed at <a href="https://rda.ucar.edu/datasets/ds551.0/">https://rda.ucar.edu/datasets/ds551.0/</a>. A remapping scheme was used to add freshwater into the appropriate coastal grid cells near the river mouths. The biogeochemical model used was the Carbon, Ocean Biogeochemistry and Lower Trophics (COBALTv2, Stock et al., 2020), which uses 33 tracers for representation of coupled elemental cycles of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, iron, silicon, alkalinity, oxygen and lithogenic matter and associated plankton food web dynamics. More details about the model setup are described in Liu et al. (2019) and Liu et al. (2021). This work was part of a PMEL-led project &quot;A Pilot BGC Argo Float Array in the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem&quot; funded by NOAA Research. This dataset contains dissolved oxygen, nitrate, temperature and salinity data interpolated to monthly means with 1˚ latitude/longitude horizontal resolution, between 1965-2017.</p> <p>References:</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Adcroft, A., Anderson, W., Blanton, C., Bushuk, M., Dufour, C.O., Dunne, J.P., Griffies, S.M. et al.
