Shelf Seas Modelling Programme
The Shelf Seas Modelling programme constitutes one part of the UK NERC Defra Shelf Sea Biogeochemistry programme. The overarching aim of the project is to better understand the cycling of carbon and nutrients within the shelf seas, and the role these regions play in global biogeochemical cycles. During the course of the project SSB-ERSEM has been released as a free, open-source modelling tool for the marine science community. Interested parties are encouraged to register in order to download and use the model for their own purposes. By registering, users are also subscribed to the user mailing list, where they can stay up to date with latest developments and raise or discuss issues.
