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...). Temporal scales include seasonnal to interannual variability. PISCES is also regularly used to study past and future climates (incl. Distant past and futures).
