World Offshore Macro Algae Production Potential (WOMAPP) netcdf output data

<p>This set of two zip files contains netcdf output files simulated with the WOMAPP model published as:</p> <ul> <li>van Oort, P.A.J., Verhagen, A., van der Werf, A.K., 2023. Can seaweeds feed the world? Modelling world offshore seaweed production potential. Ecological modelling</li> </ul> <p>The two zip files contain model output for optimistic and pessimistic scenarios, referring to literature based data on seaweed nutrient requirements:</p> <ul> <li>in the optimistic scenario: <ul> <li>cold temperature seaweed species group is NOT sensitive to high waves</li> <li>intermediate temperatures and warm temperature seaweed species groups: lower nutrient requirements</li> </ul> </li> <li>in the pessimistic scenario: <ul> <li>cold temperature seaweed species group is sensitive to high waves</li> <li>intermediate temperatures and warm temperature seaweed species groups: higher nutrient requirements</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>Within each zip file, the following netcdf files can be found:</p> <table> <thead> <tr> <th scope="row"> <p>Filename</p> </th> <th scope="col">Contents</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row"> <p>WOMAPP_legendmonths.txt</p> </th> <td>QGIS legend file with colourscheme for number of suitable months (range 0-12)</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row"> <p>WOMAPP_legendsuitability.txt</p> </th> <td>QGIS legend file with colourscheme for site suitability (range 0.0-1.0)</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row"> <p>WorldEEZY_MonthSuitabilityAll_Cold.nc</p> </th> <td>Netcdf file for the world, for the cold temperature seaweed species group.
