Global Ocean Biogeochemistry Hindcast
'''Short description'''
The biogeochemical hindcast for global ocean is produced at Mercator-Ocean (Toulouse. France). It provides 3D biogeochemical fields since year 1993 at 1/4 degree and on 75 vertical levels. It uses PISCES biogeochemical model (available on the NEMO modelling platform). No data assimilation in this product.
- Latest NEMO version (v3.6_STABLE)
- Forcings: FREEGLORYS2V4 ocean physics produced at Mercator-Ocean and ERA-Interim atmosphere produced at ECMWF at a daily frequency
- Outputs: Daily (chlorophyll. nitrate. phosphate. silicate. dissolved oxygen. primary production) and monthly (chlorophyll. nitrate. phosphate. silicate. dissolved oxygen. primary production. iron. phytoplankton in carbon) 3D mean fields interpolated on a standard regular grid in NetCDF format. The simulation is performed once and for all.
- Initial conditions: World Ocean Atlas 2013 for nitrate. phosphate. silicate and dissolved oxygen. GLODAPv2 for DIC and Alkalinity. and climatological model outputs for Iron and DOC
- Quality/Accuracy/Calibration information: See the related QuID
