Abstract
Data included are history and diagnostic output files from each model run. File formats are netCDF files. All files include the entire model domain, over a 620x740 grid of the lower Virginia tributaries to the Chesapeake Bay. Processing requires Matlab or another software that can open netCDF files. CO2SYS code is necessary for calculating inorganic carbon variables (saturation states of calcium carbonate). There are six model simulations in this dataset (ref, co2_only, temp_only, tmdl_only, temp_co2, combined_future), each run in two six-month segments (p1 and p2, p1 is July-Dec, p2 is Jan-June). Two types of files are available from each run - HIS (history, which provide monthly snapshots of all model outputs) and DIA files (diagnostic, which include daily outputs of oyster size variables for the bottom vertical level of the model).
