Abstract Marine plastic debris floating on the ocean surface is a major environmental problem. However, its distribution in poorly mapped, and most of waste estimated to have entered from land unaccounted for. Better understanding how transported coastal marine sources crucial quantify close global inventory plastics, which turn represents critical information for mitigation or policy strategies.

Lagrangian analysis is a powerful way to analyse the output of ocean circulation models and other velocity data such as from altimetry. In approach, large sets virtual particles are integrated within three-dimensional, time-evolving fields. Over several decades, variety tools methods for this purpose have emerged. Here, we review state art in field data, starting fundamental kinematic framework with focus on large-scale open applications. Beyond use explicit fields, consider influence unresolved physics dynamics particle trajectories. We comprehensively list discuss currently available tracking particles. then showcase some innovative applications trajectory conclude questions an outlook. The overall goal paper reconcile different techniques analysis, while recognising rich diversity codes that continue emerge, challenges coming age petascale computing.

Abstract. With the increasing number of data produced by numerical ocean models, so increases need for efficient tools to analyse these data. One is Lagrangian analysis, where a set virtual particles released and their dynamics are integrated in time based on fields defining state, including hydrodynamics biogeochemistry if available. This popular methodology needs adapt large variety models producing at different formats. precisely aim Parcels, analysis framework designed combine (1) wide flexibility model natures (2) an implementation accordance with modern computing infrastructure. In new Parcels v2.0, we implement interpolation schemes read various types discretized fields, from rectilinear curvilinear grids horizontal direction, z s levels vertical direction using grid staggering Arakawa A, B C grids. particular, develop scheme three-dimensional its properties. v2.0 capabilities, suite meta-field objects, then illustrated brief study distribution floating microplastic northwest European continental shelf sensitivity physical processes.

Abstract. As ocean general circulation models (OGCMs) move into the petascale age, where output of single simulations exceeds petabytes storage space, tools to analyse these will need scale up too. Lagrangian analysis, virtual particles are tracked through hydrodynamic fields, is an increasingly popular way OGCM output, by mapping pathways and connectivity biotic abiotic particulates. However, current software stack analysis codes not dynamic enough cope with increasing complexity, for customization use-cases. Furthermore, most community developed stand-alone use, making it a nontrivial task integrate at runtime OGCM. Here, we introduce new Parcels code, which was designed from ground be sufficiently scalable computing. We highlight its API design that combines flexibility ability optimize HPC workflows, following paradigm domain-specific languages. primarily written in Python, utilizing wide range available scientific Python ecosystem, while generating low-level C code using just-in-time compilation performance-critical computation. show worked-out example API, validate accuracy against seven idealized test cases. This version 0.9 focused on laying out future work concentrating support curvilinear grids, optimization, efficiency at-runtime coupling OGCMs.

Upwelling of global deep waters to the sea surface in Southern Ocean closes overturning circulation and is fundamentally important for oceanic uptake carbon heat, nutrient resupply sustaining biological production, melt rate ice shelves. However, exact pathways role topography upwelling remain largely unknown. Here we show detailed three dimensions, using hydrographic observations particle tracking high-resolution models. The analysis reveals that northern-sourced enter Antarctic Circumpolar Current via southward flow along boundaries ocean basins, before spiraling southeastward upward through Current. greatly enhanced at five major topographic features, associated with vigorous mesoscale eddy activity.

During the Deepwater Horizon incident, crude oil flowed into Gulf of Mexico from 1522 m underwater. In an effort to prevent rising surface, synthetic dispersants were applied at wellhead. However, uncertainties in formation droplets and difficulties measuring their size water column, complicated further assessment potential effect dispersant on subsea-to-surface partition. We adapted a coupled hydrodynamic stochastic buoyant particle-tracking model transport fate hydrocarbon fractions simulated far-field intrusion depth. The evaluated represented baseline for numerical experiments where we varied distributions particle sizes thus mass. allowed quantify relative effects chemical dispersion, vertical currents, inertial buoyancy motion rise velocities. present plausible scenario, some is trapped depth through shear emulsification due particular conditions Macondo blowout. Assuming effective mixing wellhead, indicates that submerged mass shifted deeper, decreasing only marginally amount surfacing. this rises slowly surface or stays immersed. This suggests other mechanisms may have contributed rapid surfacing oil-gas mixture observed initially. study also reveals local topographic processes influence eddies multiple layers. approach provides novel insights deep blowouts gauging subsea use mitigating coastal damage.

Abstract Aim We develop the first global model of connectivity for a generic broadcast spawning coral, and compare results to estimates from genetic studies, general biogeographic patterns theories. also derive various ‘connectivity indices’ describing relative isolation source potential between locations. Location Modelled oceans 47° S –47° N . Methods Dispersal coral ‘larvae’ was simulated over 8 years using an individual‐based biophysical dispersal driven by 1/12°‐resolution surface ocean current data incorporating individual trait variability (e.g. phased pre‐competency period). Source arrival locations modelled larvae on suitable reef habitat gave standardized paths levels connectivity. Results In c 50% connections occurred within 50–100 km, with rarer regions linking entire in ‘stepping stone’ fashion.
