BICEP / NCEO: Monthly global Oceanic Export Production, between 1998-2019 at 9 km resolution (derived from the Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative v4.2 dataset)

This dataset contains monthly global data for Oceanic Export Production as part of the BICEP project. Data is provided between 1998-2019 at 9 km resolution. It has been derived from the Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative v4.2 dataset.

Export production can be defined as steady-state Net Community Production (NCP) with all temporal lags accounted for and with a well defined depth horizon over which the community production is integrated over. (Laws 1991). This is the net amount of carbon assimilated in the euphotic zone that will be exported to deeper waters. Export Production can by definition only vary on timescales significantly longer that any processes directly controlling production and respiration as to not violate the steady state assumption.

Statement: The data was produced as part of the BICEP project, and has been supplied to the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis for long term archiving.

The data has been derived from the following datasets:

SST is based on reprojected fields from GHRSST/OSTIA (doi:10.5067/GHOST-4FK01), Chl and kd490 is from OC-CCI ( https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/5400de38636d43de9808bfc0b500e863, https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/db32212d86f9431dae67076dd122565e), and primary production from BICEP ( https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/69b2c9c6c4714517ba10dab3515e4ee6). The algorithms used are described in the papers listed in the documentation section.
