Yellowfin tuna embryos trajectories with exposure to solar irradiance, modeled in Connectivity Modeling System (CMS) between 2010-01-01 and 2013-12-29

A newly-developed irradiance module is included in the Connectivity Modeling System (CMS), an open-source Lagrangian, particle-tracking framework, to compute the doses of UV-A and UV-B virtual embryos received throughout their transport in the ocean. The module implements laboratory results of changes in specific gravity experienced by yellowfin tuna embryos in the Gulf of Mexico under varying UV treatment. Virtual embryos were released throughout the Gulf of Mexico, every three days, from January 1st to December 28th in 2010 and 2013, from the surface to 99 m depth, and were tracked for 24 hours. This dataset contains the trajectories and instantaneous exposure to radiation for the different responses of yellowfin tuna embryos. It provides the position (longitude, latitude, and depth) along with the doses of ultraviolet-A and ultraviolet-B for each virtual embryo along its pathway in the ocean. Related dataset with similar information for mahi-mahi embryos is located under GRIIDC Unique Dataset Identifier (UDI) R6.x804.000:0001 (doi:10.7266/n7-vg4a-0896).
