Abstract

Life in the oceans is strongly connected to our climate. In this workshop, you will learn to use packages from the JuliaOcean and JuliaClimate organizations that provide a foundation for studying marine ecosystems across a wide range of scales. We will run agent-based models to explore individual microbes and processes that drive species interactions. On the other end of the model hierarchy, we will simulate planetary-scale transports that control ocean biogeography and climate change.

Notebooks

Any example found in the online documentation is most easily run using Pluto.jl .

Just copy the corresponding notebook url link below and paste into the Pluto.jl interface (v0.15 or later).

Description

Packages covered in this workshop will include:

  • AIBECS.jl: global steady-state biogeochemistry and gridded transport models that run fast for long time scales (centuries or even millennia).
  • PlanktonIndividuals.jl: local to global agent-based model, particularly suited to study microbial communities, plankton physiology, and nutrient cycles.
  • MITgcmTools.jl: interface to full-featured, Fortran-based, general circulation model and its output (transports, chemistry, ecology, ocean, sea-ice, atmosphere, and more).
  • IndividualDisplacements.jl: local to global particle tracking, for simulating dispersion, connectivity, transports in the ocean or atmosphere, etc.
