Deep Gulf of Mexico ECOTRAN food web model parameters

This data set includes ECOTRAN food web model parameters for the Gulf of Mexico Deep Sea Ecosystem Model. The food web model is vertically integrated from the surface epipelagic to the upper bathypelagic depth zones. Functional groups include bacteria, gelatinous zooplankton, crustacean zooplankton, myctophid fishes, large piscivorous fishes, sea birds, and marine mammals. For each functional group, a set of parameters are provided: biomass (wet weight mt/km2/yr), annual production rate, consumption rate, ecotrophic efficiency, diet matrix, fisheries landings, and detritus fate.

本数据集包含墨西哥湾深海生态系统模型（Gulf of Mexico Deep Sea Ecosystem Model）所用的ECOTRAN食物网模型参数。该食物网模型在垂向上整合了从表层真光层（epipelagic）至上半深海带（upper bathypelagic）的深度区间。其功能群涵盖细菌、凝胶状浮游动物（gelatinous zooplankton）、甲壳类浮游动物（crustacean zooplankton）、灯笼鱼科鱼类（myctophid fishes）、大型肉食性鱼类（large piscivorous fishes）、海鸟以及海洋哺乳动物。针对每个功能群，均配套提供如下参数集合：生物量（湿重，单位：公吨/平方千米/年）、年生产速率、摄食率、生态营养效率（ecotrophic efficiency）、食性矩阵（diet matrix）、渔业上岸量以及碎屑归宿（detritus fate）。
