Units in iron model

Hello, I'm running the iron-limitation model ("NPZD_IRON") but I have some doubts about the units. Apparently, the iron fields must be provided in millimol per cubic meter, as done for variables like "NO3", even if iron concentrations would be expressed adequately in MICROmol per...

Re: Regional downscaling of climate projections?

This paper can help you:

https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmarsys.2019.103207

If you need further information about these experiments, I can check. I've also been doing downscaling of CMIP experiments, if you're interested in the details.

You should start with an NPZD model (for example, the Powell version) first and see how you do. Good luck.

Re: Backwards trajectory

If the Adjoint model is completely implemented, and if you can run your model whenever you want, it's most probably better to use the Adjoint model. I can tell you, however, that comparisons between the results shown in Rivas and Samelson (2011) and passive tracers advected forward in time internall...

Re: Backwards trajectory

That's right. If you decide to use option 2, you should save your model outputs as often as possible, so that the integration step is small enough to get not-so-large errors. But you should work with multi-trajectory ensembles anyway. For some details, you can see: http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/ab...
