Subset of global model sea level data for "Challenges, Advances and Opportunities in Regional Sea Level Projections: the Role of Ocean-shelf Dynamics"

Monthly sea surface height above the geoid data in NW European seas from six global simulations using the NEMO ocean model (https://www.nemo-ocean.eu/) for 1990 to 2009

ORCA0083_DFS_NWS_ssh_1990_2009, ORCA025_DFS_NWS_ssh_1990_2009, ORCA1_DFS_NWS_ssh_1990_2009, are the N006 simulation set created by Andrew Coward and the NOC Marine Systems Modelling team as used by:

Baker et al 2022 Biological Carbon Pump Sequestration Efficiency in the North Atlantic: A Leaky or a Long-Term Sink? Global Biogeochemical Cycles https://doi.org/10.1029/2021GB007286,

Wilson, C. et al. 2021 Significant variability of structure and predictability of Arctic Ocean surface pathways affects basinwide connectivity. Commun. Earth Environ. 2, 164. https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-021-00237-0 (2021).

These simulations are forced by the Drakkar Forcing Set 5.2 (DFS) and initialised at 1958, with a nominal 1/12, 1/4 and 1 degree resolution. See references for further model details.

ORCA025_JRA_NWS_ssh_1990_2009, ORCA025_JRA_tides_NWS_ssh_1990_2009, ORCA025_JRA_ShelfPhysics_NWS_ssh_1990_2009, are new simulations produced by Chris Wilson, James Harle and the Shelf Enabled NEMO team. All are forced by the JRA reanalysis, initialised in 1976.

ORCA025_JRA_NWS_ssh_1990_2009 is a reference run based on GO9, an evolution of the Joint Marine Modelling Programme configuration described by Storkey et al 2018  UK Global Ocean GO6 and GO7: a traceable hierarchy of model resolutions, Geoscientific Model Development https://gmd.copernicus.org/articles/11/3187/2018/

ORCA025_JRA_tides_NWS_ssh_1990_2009 adds explicit tides to this.

ORCA025_JRA_ShelfPhysics_NWS_ssh_1990_2009 adds tides, Generic Length Scale Mixing and Multi-envelope vertical coordinates
