  • '''This product has been archived''' '''DEFINITION''' The temporal evolution of thermosteric sea level in an ocean layer is obtained from an integration of temperature driven ocean density variations, which are subtracted from a reference climatology to obtain the fluctuations from an average field. The regional thermosteric sea level values are then averaged from 60°S-60°N aiming to monitor interannual to long term global sea level variations caused by temperature driven ocean volume changes through thermal expansion as expressed in meters (m). '''CONTEXT''' The global mean sea level is reflecting changes in the Earth’s climate system in response to natural and anthropogenic forcing factors such as ocean warming, land ice mass loss and changes in water storage in continental river basins. Thermosteric sea-level variations result from temperature related density changes in sea water associated with volume expansion and contraction. Global thermosteric sea level rise caused by ocean warming is known as one of the major drivers of contemporary global mean sea level rise (Cazenave et al., 2018; Oppenheimer et al., 2019). '''CMEMS KEY FINDINGS''' Since the year 2005 the upper (0-2000m) near-global (60°S-60°N) thermosteric sea level rises at a rate of 1.3±0.2 mm/year. Note: The key findings will be updated annually in November, in line with OMI evolutions. '''DOI (product):''' https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00240

  • '''DEFINITION''' The CMEMS NORTHWESTSHELF_OMI_tempsal_extreme_var_temp_mean_and_anomaly OMI indicator is based on the computation of the annual 99th percentile of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) from model data. Two different CMEMS products are used to compute the indicator: The North-West Shelf Multi Year Product (NWSHELF_MULTIYEAR_PHY_004_009) and the Analysis product (NORTHWESTSHELF_ANALYSIS_FORECAST_PHY_004_013). Two parameters are included on this OMI: * Map of the 99th mean percentile: It is obtained from the Multi Year Product, the annual 99th percentile is computed for each year of the product. The percentiles are temporally averaged over the whole period (1993-2019). * Anomaly of the 99th percentile in 2020: The 99th percentile of the year 2020 is computed from the Analysis product. The anomaly is obtained by subtracting the mean percentile from the 2020 percentile. This indicator is aimed at monitoring the extremes of sea surface temperature every year and at checking their variations in space. The use of percentiles instead of annual maxima, makes this extremes study less affected by individual data. This study of extreme variability was first applied to the sea level variable (Pérez Gómez et al 2016) and then extended to other essential variables, such as sea surface temperature and significant wave height (Pérez Gómez et al 2018 and Alvarez Fanjul et al., 2019). More details and a full scientific evaluation can be found in the CMEMS Ocean State report (Alvarez Fanjul et al., 2019). '''CONTEXT''' This domain comprises the North West European continental shelf where depths do not exceed 200m and deeper Atlantic waters to the North and West. For these deeper waters, the North-South temperature gradient dominates (Liu and Tanhua, 2021). Temperature over the continental shelf is affected also by the various local currents in this region and by the shallow depth of the water (Elliott et al., 1990). Atmospheric heat waves can warm the whole water column, especially in the southern North Sea, much of which is no more than 30m deep (Holt et al., 2012). Warm summertime water observed in the Norwegian trench is outflow heading North from the Baltic Sea and from the North Sea itself. '''CMEMS KEY FINDINGS''' The 99th percentile SST product can be considered to represent approximately the warmest 4 days for the sea surface in Summer. Maximum anomalies for 2020 are up to 4oC warmer than the 1993-2019 average in the western approaches, Celtic and Irish Seas, English Channel and the southern North Sea. For the atmosphere, Summer 2020 was exceptionally warm and sunny in southern UK (Kendon et al., 2021), with heatwaves in June and August. Further north in the UK, the atmosphere was closer to long-term average temperatures. Overall, the 99th percentile SST anomalies show a similar pattern, with the exceptional warm anomalies in the south of the domain. Note: The key findings will be updated annually in November, in line with OMI evolutions. '''DOI (product)''' https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00273

  • '''This product has been archived''' For operationnal and online products, please visit https://marine.copernicus.eu '''DEFINITION''' Marine primary production corresponds to the amount of inorganic carbon which is converted into organic matter during the photosynthesis, and which feeds upper trophic layers. The daily primary production is estimated from satellite observations with the Antoine and Morel algorithm (1996). This algorithm modelized the potential growth in function of the light and temperature conditions, and with the chlorophyll concentration as a biomass index. The monthly area average is computed from monthly primary production weighted by the pixels size. The trend is computed from the deseasonalised time series (1998-2019), following the Vantrepotte and Mélin method. More details are provided in the Ocean State Reports 4 (Cossarini et al. ,2020). '''CONTEXT''' Marine primary production is at the basis of the marine food web and produce about 50% of the oxygen we breath every year (Behrenfeld et al., 2001). Study primary production is of paramount importance as ocean health and fisheries are directly linked to the primary production (Pauly and Christensen, 1995, Fee et al., 2019). Changes in primary production can have consequences on biogeochemical cycles, and specially on the carbon cycle, and impact the biological carbon pump intensity, and therefore climate (Chavez et al., 2011). Despite its importance for climate and socio-economics resources, primary production measurements are scarce and do not allow a deep investigation of the primary production evolution over decades. Satellites observations and modelling can fill this gap. However, depending of their parametrisation, models can predict an increase or a decrease in primary production by the end of the century (Laufkötter et al., 2015). Primary production from satellite observations present therefore the advantage to dispose an archive of more than two decades of global data. This archive can be assimilated in models, in addition to direct environmental analysis, to minimise models uncertainties (Gregg and Rousseaux, 2019). In the Ocean State Reports 4, primary production estimate from satellite and from modelling are compared at the scale of the Mediterranean Sea. This demonstrate the ability of such a comparison to deeply investigate physical and biogeochemical processes associated to the primary production evolution (Cossarini et al., 2020) '''CMEMS KEY FINDINGS''' The trend for the global ocean is negative over the period 1998-2019 with a decline in primary production of about 0.67 mgC.m-2.yr-1 or equivalently 0.2 %.yr-1. Note: The key findings will be updated annually in November, in line with OMI evolutions. '''DOI (product):''' https://doi.org/10.48670/moi-00225

  • '''Short description:''' You can find here the biogeochemistry non assimilative hindcast simulation GLOBAL_REANALYSIS_BIO_001_018 at 1/4° over period 1998 - 2016. Outputs are delivered as monthly mean files with Netcdf format (CF/COARDS 1.5 convention) on the native tripolar grid (ORCA025) at ¼° resolution with 75 vertical levels. This simulation is based on the PISCES biogeochemical model. It is forced offline at a daily frequency by the equivalent of the GLOBAL-REANALYSIS-PHYS-001-009 physics product but without data assimilation. '''Detailed description: ''' There are 8 different datasets: * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-no3 containing : nitrate concentration * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-po4 containing : phosphate concentration * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-si containing : silicate concentration * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-o2 containing : dissolved oxygen concentration * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-fe containing : iron concentration * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-chl containing : chlorophyll concentration * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-phyc containing : carbon phytoplankton biomass * dataset-global-nahindcast-bio-001-018-pp containing : primary production The horizontal grid is the standard ORCA025 tri-polar grid (1440 x 1021 grid points). The three poles are located over Antarctic, Central Asia and North Canada. The ¼ degree resolution corresponds to the equator. The vertical grid has 75 levels, with a resolution of 1 meter near the surface and 200 meters in the deep ocean.Biogeochemical and physical simulations start at rest (cold start) in December 1991. The spin-up period consists of 5 years of interannual simulation between 1992 and 1997. The simulation period covers the ocean color era (1998 – 2016).The biogeochemical model used is PISCES (Aumont, in prep). It is a model of intermediate complexity designed for global ocean applications (Aumont and Bopp, 2006) and is part of NEMO modeling platform. It has 24 prognostic variables and simulates biogeochemical cycles of oxygen, carbon and the main nutrients controlling phytoplankton growth (nitrate, ammonium, phosphate, silicic acid and iron). The model distinguishes four plankton functional types based on size: two phytoplankton groups <nowiki>(small = nanophytoplankton and large = diatoms)</nowiki> and two zooplankton groups <nowiki>(small = microzooplankton and large = mesozooplankton).</nowiki>Prognostic variables of phytoplankton are total biomass in C, Fe, Si (for diatoms) and chlorophyll and hence the Fe/C, Si/C, Chl/C ratios are variable. For zooplankton, all these ratios are constant and total biomass in C is the only prognostic variable. The bacterial pool is not modeled explicitly. PISCES distinguishes three non-living pools for organic carbon: small particulate organic carbon, big particulate organic carbon and semi-labile dissolved organic carbon. While the C/N/P composition of dissolved and particulate matter is tied to Redfield stoichiometry, the iron, silicon and carbonate contents of the particles are computed prognostically. Next to the three organic detrital pools, carbonate and biogenic siliceous particles are modeled. Besides, the model simulates dissolved inorganic carbon and total alkalinity. In PISCES, phosphate and nitrate + ammonium are linked by constant Redfield ratio <nowiki>(C/N/P = 122/16/1)</nowiki>, but cycles of phosphorus and nitrogen are decoupled by nitrogen fixation and denitrification. Biogeochemical model PISCES (NEMO3.5) is forced offline by daily fields of the physical model NEMO (OPA module in the NEMO platform) without any assimilation of physical data. The main features of this dynamical ocean are: * NEMO 3.1 * Atmospheric forcings from 3-hourly ERA-Interim reanalysis products, CORE bulk formulation * Vertical diffusivity coefficient is computed by solving the TKE equation * Tidal mixing is parameterized according to the works of Bessières et al. (2008) and Koch-Larrouy et al, (2006). * Sea-Ice model: LIM2 with the Elastic-Viscous-Plastic rheology * Initial conditions: Levitus 98 climatology for temperature and salinity, patched with PHC2.1 for the Arctic regions, and Medatlas for the Mediterranean Sea. A special treatment is done on vertical diffusivity coefficient (Kz): the daily mean is done on Log10(Kz) after a filtering of enhanced convection (Kz increased artificially to 10 m2.s-1 when the water column is unstable). The purpose of this Log10 is to average the orders of magnitudes and to give more weight to small values of vertical diffusivity. The atmospheric forcing fields are daily averages from ERA-Interim reanalysis product (CORE bulk formulation). Boundary fluxes account for nutrient supply from three different sources: Atmospheric deposition (Aumont et al., 2008), rivers for nutrients, dissolved inorganic carbon and alkalinity (Ludwig et al., 1996; Mayorga et al., 2010) and inputs of Fe from marine sediments. Nutrient and freshwater inflows by rivers are colocalized. River and dust inputs are balanced with sediment trapping of NO3, Si and Carbon. An annual and global value of atmospheric carbon dioxide is imposed at sea surface.
