BIOMAS Model Results (a coupled sea ice/ocean/ecosystem model) https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.294 Summary This data set includes the Biology/Ice/Ocean Modeling and Assimilation System (BIOMAS) simulated monthly mean results for the Arctic Ocean planktonic ecosystem over the period 2004-2008. Also included is a movie that shows monthly variations of a few ecosystem components over the period 2006-2008. BIOMAS is a coupled sea ice, ocean, and marine planktonic ecosystem model (Zhang et al., 2009) with a model domain over the northern hemisphere north of 49 deg N. The mean horizontal resolution for most of the Arctic Ocean is about 22 km. This biophysical model is driven by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) reanalysis forcing.
