Abstract: | The three-dimensional biogeochemical model ECOHAM was applied to the Northwest European Shelf (47°41′–63°53′N, 15°5′W–13°55′E) for the years 1993–1996. Nitrogen budgets were calculated for the years 1995 and 1996 for the inner shelf region, the North Sea (511,725 km2). Simulated temperatures as well as nitrate, oxygen, and chlorophyll concentrations are compared with observations. |
