Full description

***This dataset was retired by its authors in February 2026 because the model used to generate it was discovered to have an error which lead to abnormally high/unrealistic Chlorophyll-a levels on the shelf edge and reef matrix. The values in the results dataset are not only inconsistent with the more recent GBR4_H4p0_ABARRAr2_OBRAN2020_FG2Gv3_B4p2_Cq5b_Dhnd dataset, but also scientifically unreasonable for these areas, where Chla should generally be ≤0.5 mg m⁻³ based on coral sea observations. Researchers should discontinue any use of this dataset as soon as possible.***

Results from version 3.2 of the 1km-resolution regional-scale biogeochemistry and sediments model of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR1), forced by version 2.0 of the 1km-resolution hydrodynamic model and with Furnas relationships for wet and dry tropics rivers as catchment inputs.

This model configuration and associated results dataset may be referred to as "GBR1_H2p0_B3p2_Cfur_Dnrt" according to the eReefs biogeochemical simulation naming protocol.

The model ran in near-real-time mode, updating daily, until January 2024 when the 2023/24 monsoon season caused damage to sensors in the catchments, and we lost access to the critical river-flow forcing dataset.
