Trajectory and metadata filesfrom a Southern Ocean surfaceparticle releaseexperiment using Connectivity Modeling System(Paris et al. 2013, https://github.com/beatrixparis/connectivity-modeling-system )run offline in the MOM01 model (Stewart et al., 2017; Spence et al., 2017; Morrisonet al., 2020), a global 0.1° ocean sea-ice model, based on version 5 of the Modular OceanModel (MOM) code (mom-ocean.github.io) (Griffies, 2012). Here particle trajectories are are split into 28 netcdf files (numbered traj_file_01.nc through traj_file_28.nc), and uploaded altogether as a single .tar.gz compressed file. Metadata files are also uploaded containing information on the CMS setup and release locations. Netcdf files contain particle trajectory positions, along with temperature, salinity, status in or out of the mixed layer, release date, and particle exit status (see CMS user guide for details on trajectory files). Other CMS setup files included in each release directory are nest_1.nml, runconf.list,ibm.list, and releaseFile_matchtransport. These input files contain information needed to reproduce the experiment using the MOM01 model output, and are explained in detail in the CMS user guide . Citation of associated paper:Bach, L., V.
