Channel simulation data generated by the FESOM2 ocean model. LEITH uses a Leith viscosity parameterization and KBACK a kinematic backscatter eddy parameterization. Includes u and v velocities for 10 years (first year should be excluded due to spin up) as well as u and v dissipation tendencies via Leith viscosity (for LEITH) or both backscatter and dissipation tendencies of the kinematic backscatter parameterization (KBACK).
