Model overview
PISCES is a biogeochemical model that simulates marine biological productivity and describes the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, oxygen and the main nutrients (P, N, Si, Fe) (Aumont et al., 2015)[1]. It is the marine biogeochemistry component of two ocean modeling platforms (NEMO and CROCO), three Earth System models (IPSL-CM, CNRM-CM and EC-Earth) and one operational oceanographic system (MERCATOR-Ocean). See https://www.pisces-community.org/.
Scales of interest
PISCES has been developped and used for studying a variety of biogeochemical questions at the global and regional scale (Mediterranean, Indian Ocean, North Atlantic...)[2][3].
Temporal scales include seasonnal to interannual variability. PISCES is also regularly used to study past and future climates (incl. distant past and futures)[4][5]
