Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) output for an idealized East Greenland fjord sensitivity study: physical and biogeochemical fields

We use a 3-dimensional, terrain-following, hydrostatic Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) (Haidvogel et al., 2008) to simulate processes within an idealized fjord with features (dimensions, water mass properties, and subglacial discharge rates) similar to those observed for many south east Greenlandic systems. To simulate the biological drawdown of nutrients within the fjord, we add a biogeochemical model with two nutrient types: nitrate and silicate. To test the sensitivity of nutrient export from the fjord under different fjord geometries, forcing conditions, and initial vertical profiles of temperature, salinity, and nutrients, we run the model under 21 different configurations, shared as NetCDF files in this dataset. All time fields are calculated from 12.42-hr-average output to remove the M2 tidal influence on outflow velocities.
