Model Data Set for the study on 2020 ozone depletion

Introduction

This data repository provides access to the model data of the study by Grooß and Müller submitted to JGR (2020). In this study, the unprecedented Arctic stratospheric ozone loss in the winter 2019/2020 is examined using simulations of the Chemical Lagrangian Model of the Stratosphere (CLaMS) and data from ACE-FTS, Aura-MLS and Aura-OMI.

Data access

The data set provided on this web site is taken from the model CLaMS. The data set contains model averages in bins of equivalent latitude and hybrid potential temperature zeta (equal to potential temperature abvoe 100 hPa) for each model day. The file format is NetCDF that is described here. Note that these are non-operational research data products, which have been made available to other scientists and the general public.
