Global nutrient cycling by commercially targeted marine fish (Le Mézo et al., 2022, Biogeosciences)

Model outputs and code used for the study "Global nutrient cycling by commercially targeted marine fish" published in Biogeosciences (Le Mézo et al., 2022). 

composite4b_cycling_MCV3_PotH_LME_2010_R2_2010_fNPP7_ks24_p50_c7_newFNPP_Online_nruns_31 = model outputs with

composite.maps contains the 2D fields

y200 refers to fields at the pristine state and yglo to fields at the global peak catch.

dfish is the fish biomass in wet weight per gram (size class)

resp5 is the cycling rate that was used in the paper (defined in the Methods section)

Main_script.mlx = main code used to compute the nutrient content and cycling of fish and the comparisons with other fields

size_bins_width.m = code used to compute the model size bin width

data_annual.mat = NO3, PO4, NPP, C export fields

composite_MCV3_PotH_LME_2010_R2_2010_fNPP7_ks24_p50_c7_newFNPP_Online_nruns_31.mat is the model outputs with

cyc.composite.maps.yglo.mean.harvest being the catch field at global peak catch

solublefraction_Mahowald2009_360x180.nc is the Fe deposition field

 Brahneyetal2015_nitrogenandphosphorus2x2annualdep_360x180.nc is the N deposition field

mask_LME.mat is the mask of LME areas

ocean_topaz_tracers.timmean.BOATS_grid_fed.nc is the modeled dissolved Fe concentrations in seawater by the TOPAZ model

zeu_lee_modis_aqua_average_2002-2019.nc is the euphotic depth field used to compute the nutrient concentrations

woa05_nitrate_month.nc is the NO3 field used to make the spatial interpolations of the Fe:C stoichiometric ratios.

mass_50sizes_boats.mat is the mass of each size class of the BOATS model

Tables S2 and S3.xlsx litterature compilation of values for N and P in fish and zooplankton

Galbraith et al (2019) SI.pdf is the supplement to Galbraith et al. (2019) in which the data compilation for the Fe content of fish, zooplankton and phytoplankton can be found.
