Derived data from NEMO simulations described in the above paper. All files are in NetCDF format, and the fields are clearly and unambiguously named. The file names are based on the names of the seven experiments described in the paper, and for each experiment there are seven files, as follows: _global_annual_TSdrift.nc: annual and global mean temperature and salinity fields, evaluated at each model depth level, along with temporal and spatial derivatives. _atl_annual_TSdrift.nc: as above, but evaluated in the Atlantic domain. _1996-2005_T300.nc: Global temperature at approximately 300m, averaged over final decade of integration. _5d_19960101-19960106_gridreynolds.nc: the cell Reynolds number at each model grid cell, averaged over the first five days of year 20 of each integration. _1976-2005_Drake_transports.nc: Annual mean volume transports through Drake Passage. _1976-2005_FLStrait_transports.nc: Annual mean volume transports through Florida Strait. _1996-2005_2deg_global_mixing_fields.nc: Contains fields presented in the mixing analysis in the paper. These are zonal means in the global domain, evaluated in 2-degree latitudinal bins and evaluated from 5-day means over the final decade of the integration.
