Simulations of surface Lagrangian tracers using the regional ocean modeling system (ROMS) velocity field in the northern Gulf of Mexico from 2016-01-29 to 2016-08-08

A series of the Larval TRANSport Lagrangian model (LTRANS) simulation for surface Lagrangian tracers in the De Soto Canyon region and to the west of the Mississippi Fan. The Lagrangian tracers are confined near the ocean surface and are advected off-line by interpolating on the particle positions the regional ocean modeling system (ROMS) hourly-averaged horizontal velocities using LTRANS v.2b.

本数据集包含针对德索托海谷区域及密西西比扇以西海域的表层拉格朗日示踪剂开展的幼体输运拉格朗日模型（Larval TRANSport Lagrangian model, LTRANS）系列模拟。该类拉格朗日示踪剂被约束于海洋表层附近，并借助LTRANS v.2b版本，通过在粒子位置上插值区域海洋模式系统（Regional Ocean Modeling System, ROMS）的逐小时平均水平流场，以离线方式对示踪粒子进行平流输运。
