Welcome!

This repository contains code, figures, data, and other supplemental material for the study "Pan-Arctic Ocean primary production constrained by turbulent nitrate fluxes". Our findings are written down in this interactive html document.

Contents

The main effort is concentrated in the following notebooks:

  1. Database of hydrography and seawater nitrate concentrations:
  1. Compilation of nitrate fluxes
  1. Comparison of nitrate stocks and fluxes with primary production

Figures are located in nb_fig. In addition, there are two interactive visualizations in particular that allow for exploration of the rather vast nitrate database.

One, to explore seasonal cycles of nitrate concentrations, works as a standalone html file. You can view it on its own, or as part of the interactive article file by downloading the html file and opening it in your browser.

The second one is more data-intensive and needs a live python server. It can be launched using the command line:

cd nb && panel serve --show A3_app_explore_nitrate.ipynb

provided you have all packages installed (see below) and you've run notebook nb/A1_compile_nitrate.ipynb.

Usage

There are many ways to explore this study!

  • If you would just like to take a look around, the easiest way is probably to follow this link or click on the "Binder" badge in the top of this document. This will launch an interactive environment in the cloud where you can run, modify, and re-run all the code.

  • If you would like a local copy, you can create one by cloning this repository using:

git clone https://github.com/poplarShift/arctic-nitrate-fluxes.git .

Then you can create a conda environment on your machine containing all necessary dependencies using

$ conda env create -f binder/environment.yml

  • If there is interest, I can also provide a pre-compiled Docker image, which gives access to the entire computing environment with all the dependencies.
