Summary: | This dataset contains the initial and final positions and properties of Lagrangian trajectories evaluated using 5-day mean velocity and tracer fields output from the ORCA0083-N06 ocean sea-ice model hindcast (1958-2015). Numerical water parcels are initialised to sample the full-depth southward transport across the RAPID 26.5N array every month during 2004-2015. Water parcels are advected backwards-in-time using a bespoke version of TRACMASS v7.1 Lagrangian particle tracking tool which enables users to specify a custom domain using a mask netCDF file. Particles are initialised on the first-available day of each month (based on the centre of the model 5-day mean field windows) between 2004 and 2015 (inclusive) before being advected backwards-in-time within the North Atlantic Ocean until any one of four termination conditions are met: (1) water parcels reach the RAPID 26.5N array, (2) water parcels reach the OSNAP (West or East) arrays in the subpolar North Atlantic, (3) water parcels reach either the English ... |
