These files contain the raw data required to predict fluxes of
beaching marine debris at remote islands in the western Indian
Ocean, from marine and terrestrial sources, as described in the
accompanying manuscript. Please use the scripts in the 
accompanying github repository to convert these raw data into
debris fluxes, as a function of beaching and sinking rate, and
physical scenario.

These files are made available in the NetCDF (.nc) format.
For each marine and terrestrial scenario, debris releases 
were carried out four times per month. 
Each .nc file corresponds to one release,
using the following file name convention:

[SOURCE]_[SCENARIO]_[YEAR]_[MONTH]_[RELEASE].nc

SOURCE: Marine/Terrestrial
SCENARIO: C0-CS5 (as described in the manuscript)
RELEASE: 0-3 (equally spaced within a month)
