Short summary
The paper presents a complete description of version 1.0 of the Diat-HadOCC ocean biogeochemical model. A full set of equations is included, as are the parameterisations used and the rationale for choosing them. The model was developed to be a sub-model of the HadGEM2-ES Earth system model, which has been used to run a range of simulations for the 5th Climate Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5). Results from those simulations are shown and compared to data (where available).
