This dataset contains model output files from numerical simulations of hydrothermal plume dispersion at the Endeavour Segment of the Juan de Fuca Ridge, spanning two one-year periods in 2016 and 2021. The simulations capture the complex interactions among seafloor hydrothermal discharge, deep-sea ocean currents, and mid-ocean ridge topography, and they illustrate the dispersion of hydrothermal plumes from the ridge segment into the surrounding ocean interior. The simulations were conducted using...

These numbers come from Google Analytics and reflect real user activity on the site. They reliably show page usage and are mostly free of bot traffic.
The simulations were conducted using the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS). The model outputs comprise daily averaged three-dimensional fields to velocity, temperature, salinity, along with other model variables. For the period of 2016-08-28 to 2016-12-11, the model outputs are averaged over 4-hour intervals.
