This data set includes the results of Lagrangian particle tracking experiments with FESOM1.4-REcoM2. Particles were seeded at 596 positions near the Filchner Ice Shelf front at 78°S between Berkner Island and Coats Land and tracked forwards and backwards using daily mean model output. Particles were seeded every 10th day in 1990 and 1991 (historical, forward), 2009 and 2008 (historical, backward), 2080 and 2081 (future/SSP5-8.5 scenario, forward), and 2099 and 2098 (future/SSP5-8.5 scenario, backward). Particles were tracked outside of ice-shelf cavities for 20 (19) years or until the the particle left the domain of interest in the north (62°S), west (65°W), or east (2°E). The following information for each particle is stored twice a day: longitude (blon in files), latitude (blat), time (bday and time), depth (bdepth), temperature (btemp), salinity (bsalt), density (bsigma0; potential density anomaly referenced to 0dbar) dissolved inorganic carbon (bdic), and total carbon (btotc).
