Data Management Plan
DMP Template v2.0.1 (2015-01-01)
Please provide the following information, and submit to the NOAA DM Plan Repository.Reference to Master DM Plan (if applicable)
As stated in Section IV, Requirement 1.3, DM Plans may be hierarchical. If this DM Plan inherits provisions from a higher-level DM Plan already submitted to the Repository, then this more-specific Plan only needs to provide information that differs from what was provided in the Master DM Plan.
1. General Description of Data to be Managed
The files described here are the Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) Atlantis Ecosystem model input files used in for testing CMIP6 climate scenarios developed by main Hawaiian Islands ROMS. These input files were used to run forecast simulations under three different CMIP6 climate change scenarios: low-emission (SSP1-2.6), moderate-emission (SSP2-4.5), and high-emission (SSP3-7.0). Files included are parameter (.prm), initial conditions (.nc), and land-based source pollutants (LBSP) forcing files. The parameter files include a run file, biological parameters, forcing parameters (list climate and pollution forcing files), harvest parameters (fishing mortality), and physics parameters. The LBSP forcing files are time series files representing spatial deposition of nutrients and sediments from land to the nearshore regions covered by Hawaii Atlantis. In recalibrating the current model based on updated climate forcing files (ROMS projections), the parameter and initial conditions files have been adjusted since initial model development. The ROMS projections used to force Hawaii Atlantis are not included in this data set, as they are from a different project.
Hawaii Atlantis was initially developed at PIFSC and further details regarding the model, as well as outputs of a model run based on older inputs, are hosted as InPort catalog item 55245. The LBSP forcing files hosted here were developed based on Ocean Tipping Points project data as part of initial model development.

Notes: The name of the Person of the most recent Support Role of type "Metadata Contact" is used. The support role must be in effect.
Notes: The name of the Organization of the most recent Support Role of type "Metadata Contact" is used. This field is required if applicable.
3. Responsible Party for Data Management
Program Managers, or their designee, shall be responsible for assuring the proper management of the data produced by their Program. Please indicate the responsible party below.
Notes: The name of the Person of the most recent Support Role of type "Data Steward" is used. The support role must be in effect.
4. Resources
Programs must identify resources within their own budget for managing the data they produce.
5. Data Lineage and Quality
NOAA has issued Information Quality Guidelines for ensuring and maximizing the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of information which it disseminates.
(describe or provide URL of description):
Lineage Statement:
The Atlantis Ecosystem Model framework (developed by CSIRO: http://atlantis.cmar.csiro.au/) was used as the model platform.
Process Steps:
- All process steps are detailed in a Technical Memorandum: Weijerman, M. 2020. Development of an Atlantis model for Hawaiûi to support ecosystem-based management. U.S. Dept. of Commerce. NOAA Technical Memorandum NOAA-TM-NMFS-PIFSC-##, 137 p. doi:10.7289/V5/TM-PIFSC-##. (Citation: Weijerman, M. 2020. Development of an Atlantis model for Hawaii to support ecosystem-based management. U.S. Dept. of Commerce. NOAA Technical Memorandum NOAA-TM-NMFS-PIFSC-113 doi.org/10.25923/cwqb-1z04)
(describe or provide URL of description):
Sensitivity analysis and model skill assessments have been performed. These showed that the model is sensitive to plankton and shark biomass.
6. Data Documentation
The EDMC Data Documentation Procedural Directive requires that NOAA data be well documented, specifies the use of ISO 19115 and related standards for documentation of new data, and provides links to resources and tools for metadata creation and validation.
Missing/invalid information:
- 1.6. Type(s) of data
- 1.7. Data collection method(s)
- 7.3. Data access methods or services offered
- 7.4. Approximate delay between data collection and dissemination
- 8.1. Actual or planned long-term data archive location
- 8.3. Approximate delay between data collection and submission to an archive facility
(describe or provide URL of description):
7. Data Access
NAO 212-15 states that access to environmental data may only be restricted when distribution is explicitly limited by law, regulation, policy (such as those applicable to personally identifiable information or protected critical infrastructure information or proprietary trade information) or by security requirements. The EDMC Data Access Procedural Directive contains specific guidance, recommends the use of open-standard, interoperable, non-proprietary web services, provides information about resources and tools to enable data access, and includes a Waiver to be submitted to justify any approach other than full, unrestricted public access.
Not Applicable
Notes: The name of the Organization of the most recent Support Role of type "Distributor" is used. The support role must be in effect. This information is not required if an approved access waiver exists for this data.
Notes: This field is required if a Distributor has not been specified.
Notes: All URLs listed in the Distribution Info section will be included. This field is required if applicable.
Notes: This field is required if applicable.
8. Data Preservation and Protection
The NOAA Procedure for Scientific Records Appraisal and Archive Approval describes how to identify, appraise and decide what scientific records are to be preserved in a NOAA archive.
