Dataset
Anomalies of Biogeochemical Parameters in the Tropical Region (TROPBGC)
Abstract
This dataset contains biogeochemical parameter anomalies, calculated from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS-Aqua) (Chlorophyll Concentration), GLOBAL_MULTIYEAR_BGC_001_029 and MULTIOBS_GLO_BIO_CARBON_SURFACE_REP_015_008 datasets.
Data was taken from existing datasets, from National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) the MODIS-Aqua satellite (chlorophyll) and from Copernicus Marine System 2 biogeochemical sets called GLOBAL_MULTIYEAR_BGC_001_029 (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi -00019) and MULTIOBS_GLO_BIO_CARBON_SURFACE_REP_015_008 (https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00047), from which the anomalies were computed and the files were created using the following Matlab functions:
1- Humberto L. Varona. (2021). mNC: A tool for Oceanographers and Meteorologists to easily create their NetCDF files using Matlab (1.0). Zenodo. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5572749
2- Humberto L. Varona. (2021). CalcPlotAnomaly: Matlab function set for the calculation and plotting of anomalies (1.01). Zenodo. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5576889
Anomalies were computed for the entire tropic.
The parameters are: Chlorophyll concentration, pH, Surface aqueous partial pressure of CO2 , NO3, Surface downward flux of total CO2, PO4, SI, O2, Fe and concentration of phytoplankton.
All files are in NetCDF format
This dataset was produced for the project Tropical and South Atlantic climate-based marine ecosystem predictions for sustainable management, to Tropical Atlantic Interdisciplinary Laboratory on physical, biogeochemical, ecological and human dynamics (IJL TAPIOCA) and the Brazilian Research Network on Global Climate Change (Rede CLIMA).
