Data contains outputs of two global model simulations performed with ocean biogeochemical model FESOM-REcoM. Model results were averaged over the last five years of sixty years simulations. There are the three-dimensional outputs of biomass of plankton functional types (small phytoplankton, diatom, micro-, meso- and macrozooplankton). Also, two-dimensional files contain surface nitrate (DIN), silicate (DSi), iron (DFe), chlorophyll, zooplankton DON excretion, zooplankton grazing rate, grazing loss of phytoplankton, temperature and depth-integrated net primary production. In addition, there are daily outputs of phytoplankton carbon biomass, chlorophyll concentration, mixed layer depth, phytoplankton grazing and other loss rates in the Southern Ocean.
