eReefs GBR4 biogeochemistry and sediments v3.1

Created 05/03/2026

Updated 05/03/2026

Results from version 3.1 of the 4km-resolution regional-scale biogeochemistry and sediments model of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR4), forced by version 2.0 of the 4km-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 "GBR4_H2p0_B3p1_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.
