SUPERSEDED: eReefs GBR4 hydrodynamics v1.85

SUPERSEDED: This dataset has been superseded by GBR4_H2p0 (2010-09 to present) and it was removed from the NCI fx3 project and THREDDS server in April 2024.  An archive copy has been retained by the custodians, and access can be arranged on request.

Results from version 1.85 of the 4 km resolution regional-scale hydrodynamic model of the great Barrier Reef (GBR4). It was forced with BlueLink OceanMAPS data on the open boundaries and Bureau of Meteorology model ACCESS-R for surface atmospheric data. The tide was introduced through 22 constituents derived from the global CSR tide model, and 22 river boundaries incorporated measured stream flow and temperature data from QLD DNRM's gauging stations.

This model version was published for reference in the SIEF report from January 2016, but was later discovered to have been forced with incorrect (multiplicative error) rainfall levels, and the 2015 results contain salinity errors.

This model configuration and associated results dataset may be referred to as "GBR4_H1p85" according to the eReefs simulation naming protocol.
