Mapping of IGC-EMO nutrient loads on the high resolution HD model grid (Version 1)
Under the heading of the OSPAR convention (Sect. 1.1), the IGC-EMO database of daily freshwater inflows and nutrient loads was compiled by van Leeuwen and Lenhart (2021), which covers the major rivers discharging into the Baltic Sea, North Sea and Northeast Atlantic (Sect. 1.2). In this database, the data are distributed in separate ASCII files according to the respective country and river. In order to allow an easier utilization within a regional Earth System or ocean modelling framework, we mapped the IGC-EMO data onto the flow grid of the European 1/12° domain of the Hydrological Discharge (HD) model (Sect. 1.3). This mapping was done for daily time series of discharge, total nitrogen (N), total phosphorus (P) and Silicate for the period 1940-2022 following the procedure described in Sect. 1.4.

- Attribute description
- water_volume_transport_in_river_channel
- Descriptor
-
The water flux or volume transport in rivers is the amount of water flowing in the river channel and flood plain. "Water" means water in all phases. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: m3 s-1
- Attribute description
- phosphorus_mass_transport_in_river_channel
- Descriptor
-
The amount of total phosphorus mass transported in the river channels from land into the ocean. This quantity can be provided at a certain location within the river network and floodplain (over land) or at the river mouth (over ocean) where the river enters the ocean. "River" refers to water in the fluvial system (stream and floodplain). Phosphorus means phosphorus in all chemical forms, commonly referred to as "total phosphorus". [CF-Standard Name]; unit: t/d
