Nitrate flux and inventory from high-resolution CESM CORE-Normal-Year integration

A dynamic seaweed growth model that includes growth-limiting mechanisms, such as nitrate supply, to estimate the global potential yield of four types of seaweed. Simulations include two bounding nitrate scenarios. The results were used to assess the geographic distribution and potential of offshore seaweed farming to produce harvestable biomass at climate-relevant scales under the constraints of ambient upper-ocean concentrations and vertical advective fluxes of nitrate.

本数据集基于一款集成硝酸盐供给等生长限制机制的动态海藻生长模型，用于估算四类海藻的全球潜在总产量。模拟实验涵盖两类硝酸盐边界情景。研究利用该模型的模拟结果，在表层海洋环境硝酸盐浓度与垂直平流硝酸盐通量的约束条件下，评估了近海海藻养殖的地理分布潜力，以及在气候相关尺度下生产可收获生物质的可行性。
