Convection injects labile particulate organic carbon to the deep ocean (simulation data).

README file for the model simulation dataset of the article "Convection injects labile particulate organic carbon to the deep ocean"by Martí Galí*, María Andrea Orihuela-García, Yohan Ruprich-Robert, Vladimir Lapin, María Sánchez-Urrea, Marcos Fontela, Joan Llort, Valentina Sicardi, Raffaele Bernardello Details:- Output of global 3D simulations in netCDF format (model NEMO4.0.4-PISCESv2_RC).- Data comprise three simulations (experiment ID): REF (a67o), SAT (a683) and SAT extreme (a5xl). A 2000m bathymetry mask is also provided.- For each simulation, output is cropped to the North Atlantic subpolar gyre region, defined by longitude [-65 to -20] and latitude [50 to 70].- Original simulation outputs are monthly data on the ORCA1_L75 grid.- Files are formatted according to CMOR standards (one variable per file). Variable definitions are provided in the metadata of each file.- Physical fields are common to the three experiments, so variables volcello, mlotst and mlotstmax are provided only for REF (a67o)- For each simulation (expid) we provide various data folders:expid/month: monthly POC concentrations and fluxes at 4 selected depths (100, 500, 1000 and 2000m) on the ORCA1 horizontal grid.expid/year: annual mean fields at 4 selected depths (100, 500, 1000 and 2000m) on the ORCA1 horizontal grid.expid/month_STARTYEAR_2019: 3D fields (ORCA1_L75) of the monthly mean of each variable between STARTYEAR and 2019expid/month_2009_2013: 3D fields (ORCA1_L75) of the monthly mean of each variable between 2009 and 2013expid/month_2014_2018: 3D fields (ORCA1_L75) of the monthly mean of each variable between 2014 and 2018 Note: STARTYEAR is 1958 for simulation REF (a67o) and 1998 for satellite-restored simulations (a683 and a5xl)
