Model output for marine debris accumulating at Seychelles and other remote islands in the western Indian Ocean (1993-2019)
This dataset contains raw beaching data computed by marine debris simulations (run using OceanParcels) for a range of physical scenarios (surface currents from GLORYS12V1 ( https://doi.org/10.3389/feart.2021.698876), Stokes drift from WAVERYS ( https://doi.org/10.1007/s10236-020-01433-w), and surface winds from ERA5 ( https://doi.org/10.1002/qj.3803)), as described in the accompanying manuscript. Through postprocessing, debris ‘connectivity’ matrices can be computed, providing predictions for the main terrestrial and marine source regions of plastic debris accumulating at remote islands in the western Indian Ocean. These simulations include beaching and sinking processes, and a set of example matrices is provided here ( https://doi.org/10.5287/bodleian:DEdqwXZQw). However, these matrices can be recomputed for different sinking and beaching rates using the scripts archived here ( https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7351695), or see here ( https://github.com/nvogtvincent/WIO_Marine_Debris/) for the live version with documentation. These predictions will be useful for environmental practitioners in the western Indian Ocean to assess source regions for marine debris accumulating at islands of interest, and when this debris is likely to beach. The data were produced as part of the Marine Dispersal and Retention in the Western Indian Ocean project funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) grant NE/S007474/1.

-
This dataset consists of modelled large scale dispersal experiments across the southwestern Indian Ocean. The simulations were funded through PhD project NE/S007474/1, Marine dispersal and retention in the western Indian Ocean, held by Noam Vogt-Vincent who was supervised by Helen Johnson, both at University of Oxford. The outputs are archived on the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC)'s space at the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) and assigned a DOI. No quality control procedures were applied by BODC.
