Short summary
We developed the GOTM–TOPAZ, a single-column ocean biogeochemistry model, which simulates the biogeochemical processes including carbon and nutrient cycles. The model contains the bio–physical feedback by incorporating the oceanic heating due to chlorophyll absorption of solar radiation. We evaluate the model performance against available observations and a global ocean simulation, and this shows that our model reproduces the magnitude of and variability in biogeochemical variables well.
