test query
SELECT obs, traj, mpa, distance, land, lat, lon, temp, "time", z
FROM public.trajectories_nostokes_subset_10000 where traj = 0 order by obs limit 100;
The "order by" is needed, the observations are not ordered in the source.
Running:
SELECT obs, traj, mpa, distance, land, lat, lon, temp, "time", z
FROM public.trajectories_stokes_subset_10000 where traj = 0 order by obs limit 100;
We see that the trajectories are much faster, the distance is almost double of the "nostokes" dataset.
obs 99, no Stokes drift: 99 0 1 15.530908 0 43.29053 5.2286572 13.36425 "2017-03-05 03:00:00" 1.0182366 obs 99, with Stokes drift: 99 0 1 27.268465 0.99102813 43.353794 5.2833734 0.120739646 "2017-03-05 03:00:00" 1.0182366 With Stokes drift, obs 54 has already reached the "nostokes" obs 99 distance: 54 0 1 15.538239 0.40967715 43.26185 5.3504033 7.9671803 "2017-03-03 06:00:00" 1.0182366
If it is taken away by the Stokes drift, the larvae trajectory also seems to take a slightly different way, since at the same distance, lon
and lat
differ quite a bit, and the land value is different.
It is unclear how interesting this comparison is, but it might lead us to add a possible connection between the two datasets not on the location and time, but on the distance.
Larvae example trajectories
This is 2x 10.000 example trajectories from biophysical experiments performed with Parcels.
The trajectories are a tiny subset of a much bigger collection of trajectories that have been simulated with the aim of learning about the fate of larvae of different species of fish. Note that we cannot give a lot of background on the biological study here, because we are still working on this publication.
Also note, that these trajectories should not be used for biological or physical science but merely serve as study objects for developing, testing, or benchmarking (stasticical) methods and algorithms.
Different physics
The trajectories are taken from two classes of biophysical simulations which differ in the physical processes they take into account when estimating horizontal movement of the larvae at the surface.
One experiment only took into account ocean currents from a state estimate of the true ocean circulation in the Mediterranean Sea. The other experiment took into account ocean currents and the horizontal movement due to Stokes Drift which was estimated based on a wave state estimate for the Mediterranean Sea.
