Model data for numerical evaluation of photosensitive tracers as a strategy for separating surface and subsurface transient storage in streams

This model-data archive pertains to a study aimed at the numerical evaluation of the photosensitive tracers as a potential strategy for separating the effects of surface and hyporheic storage zones (SSZs and HSZs, respectively). Separating effects of SSZ and HSZ are important for accurately representing stream function as HSZs and SSZs expose solutes to significantly different biogeochemical conditions. We perform numerical experiments using a multiscale reactive transport model for stream corridors implemented in ATS code, which allows for representing multiple storage zones with their respective travel time distributions and biogeochemistry. For each of the numerical experiment, we provide in this model-data archive python wrapper to drive ATS (forward_model.py), synthetic observation (synthetic_btc.py, BTC_observed.csv), forward model files including ATS input (multiscale_transport.tpl), PFLOTRAN inputs (reactions_channel.tpl, reactions_hz.tpl, reactions_sz.tpl), MCMC (mcmc_run.py), predictive uncertainty (pred_uncert.py, BTCs_simulated_day.csv, BTCs_simulated_night.csv), MCMC outputs (tracer_test_GR.npy, tracer_test_logps.npy, tracer_test_parameters.npy) and Jupyter notebook for post-processing and visualization (post-processing.ipynb). For the denitrification application, ATS input file (denitrification_multisubgrid.tpl), PFLOTRAN input files (denitrification_channel.in, denitrification_hz.in), predictive uncertainty (pred_uncert_denitrification.py, BTCs_simulated_DO.csv, BTCs_simulated_DOC.csv, BTCs_simulated_Nitrate.csv).
