Global simulations of ocean-sea ice-biogeochemistry model FESOM2.1-REcoM3 with eddy-permitting grid resolution and terrigenous inputs in the Arctic Ocean

nuArctic aims at increasing our understanding of the remineralization of nutrients and carbon in the Arctic Ocean and its feedbacks with the Earth System, i.e. the capacity of the Arctic Ocean to be productive and to act as a carbon sink into the future. To do so, the project is proposing modeling advances to increase the robustness of model projections. This project includes global model simulations with the global multi-resolution Finite Volume Sea Ice-Ocean Model (FESOM version 2.1) coupled to the Regulated Ecosystem Model (REcoM version 3, Gürses et al. 2024). For this project, model simulations include a representation of terrigenous inputs from both rivers and coastal erosion and were run from 1970-2100 on a model grid with eddy-permitting (4.5 km) resolution at pan-Arctic scale. The ocean-only model simulations were forced at the ocean surface with 3-hourly atmospheric output from the AWI Climate Model (Semmler et al. 2020). The project includes model experiments under four “Shared Socioeconomic Pathways” emission scenarios, a control run and sensitivity experiments. This work lead to the publication of Oziel et al. 2025 ("Climate change and terrigenous inputs decrease the efficiency of the future Arctic Ocean’s biological carbon pump » in 2025 in Nature Climate Change) which comprises a detailed description of the methods, model experiments and setups but also a publication of the source code and post-processing scripts (Oziel, 2024).

sea_water_practical_salinity
Descriptor

cf:Practical Salinity, S_P, is a determination of the salinity of sea water, based on its electrical conductance. The measured conductance, corrected for temperature and pressure, is compared to the conductance of a standard potassium chloride solution, producing a value on the Practical Salinity Scale of 1978 (PSS-78). This name should not be used to describe salinity observations made before 1978, or ones not based on conductance measurements. Conversion of Practical Salinity to other precisely defined salinity measures should use the appropriate formulas specified by TEOS-10. Other standard names for precisely defined salinity quantities are sea_water_absolute_salinity (S_A); sea_water_preformed_salinity (S_*), sea_water_reference_salinity (S_R); sea_water_cox_salinity (S_C), used for salinity observations between 1967 and 1977; and sea_water_knudsen_salinity (S_K), used for salinity observations between 1901 and 1966. Salinity quantities that do not match any of the precise definitions should be given the more general standard name of sea_water_salinity.

"Mole concentration" means number of moles per unit volume, also called "molarity", and is used in the construction "mole_concentration_of_X_in_Y", where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical or biological species denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". "Organic carbon" describes a family of chemical species and is the term used in standard names for all species belonging to the family that are represented within a given model. The list of individual species that are included in a quantity having a group chemical standard name can vary between models. Where possible, the data variable should be accompanied by a complete description of the species represented, for example, by using a comment attribute. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: mol m-3

Irradiance Limitation of Diatoms

Comment: Growth limitation of diatoms due to solar irradiance. 'Growth limitation due to solar irradiance' means the ratio of the growth rate of a species population in the environment (where the amount of sunlight reaching a location may be limited) to the theoretical growth rate if there were no such limit on solar irradiance.

alias: surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux

"Downward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. The chemical formula for carbon dioxide is CO2. The standard name surface_upward_mole_flux_of_carbon_dioxide should be used to label data in which the flux is positive when directed upward. The standard name "surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux" is deprecated because it does not specify in which direction the flux is positive. Any data having the standard name "surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux" should be examined carefully to determine which sign convention was used. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

surface_downward_mole_flux_of_carbon_dioxide
Descriptor

alias: surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux

"Downward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. The chemical formula for carbon dioxide is CO2. The standard name surface_upward_mole_flux_of_carbon_dioxide should be used to label data in which the flux is positive when directed upward. The standard name "surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux" is deprecated because it does not specify in which direction the flux is positive. Any data having the standard name "surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux" should be examined carefully to determine which sign convention was used. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled

mole_concentration_of_dissolved_organic_nitrogen_in_sea_water
Descriptor

Mole concentration means number of moles per unit volume, also called "molarity", and is used in the construction "mole_concentration_of_X_in_Y", where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical or biological species denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". "dissolved organic nitrogen" describes a family of chemical species, in an ocean or lake model, which originate directly from plankton (excretion or released on death) or indirectly from soil via the atmosphere (blown by wind) and rivers (washout by rain). "dissolved organic nitrogen" is the term used here for all species belonging to the family that are represented within a given model. The list of individual species that are included in a quantity having a group chemical standard name can vary between models. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: mol m-3

mole_concentration_of_dissolved_organic_nitrogen_in_sea_water
Descriptor

Mole concentration means number of moles per unit volume, also called "molarity", and is used in the construction "mole_concentration_of_X_in_Y", where X is a material constituent of Y. A chemical or biological species denoted by X may be described by a single term such as "nitrogen" or a phrase such as "nox_expressed_as_nitrogen". "dissolved organic nitrogen" describes a family of chemical species, in an ocean or lake model, which originate directly from plankton (excretion or released on death) or indirectly from soil via the atmosphere (blown by wind) and rivers (washout by rain). "dissolved organic nitrogen" is the term used here for all species belonging to the family that are represented within a given model. The list of individual species that are included in a quantity having a group chemical standard name can vary between models. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: mol m-3

Irradiance Limitation of Diatoms

Comment: Growth limitation of diatoms due to solar irradiance. 'Growth limitation due to solar irradiance' means the ratio of the growth rate of a species population in the environment (where the amount of sunlight reaching a location may be limited) to the theoretical growth rate if there were no such limit on solar irradiance.

surface_downward_mole_flux_of_carbon_dioxide
Descriptor

alias: surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux

"Downward" indicates a vector component which is positive when directed downward (negative upward). In accordance with common usage in geophysical disciplines, "flux" implies per unit area, called "flux density" in physics. The surface called "surface" means the lower boundary of the atmosphere. The chemical formula for carbon dioxide is CO2. The standard name surface_upward_mole_flux_of_carbon_dioxide should be used to label data in which the flux is positive when directed upward. The standard name "surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux" is deprecated because it does not specify in which direction the flux is positive. Any data having the standard name "surface_carbon_dioxide_mole_flux" should be examined carefully to determine which sign convention was used. [CF-Standard Name]; unit: not filled
