This document describes additional supporting aspects of the publication: Historical tropospheric and stratospheric ozone radiative forcing using the CMIP6 database to fulfil the recommendations of AGU’s Data Policy as described in the Statement of Commitment of the Coalition on Publishing Data in the Earth and Space Sciences (COPDESS) and also in the Transparency and Openness Promotion Guidelines (TOP). Therefore, from the original CMIP6 Ozone forcing dataset documentation, it has been extracted specific validations in terms of total ozone column, partial ozone column, as well as zonal mean time series of ozone concentrations over several latitudinal bands. A second part of the document summarizes the code developed to create specific products like total column ozone or partial column ozone but also several steps of data analysis based on the estimation of time-series of concentrations, anomalies and seasonal cycles. Finally, a new specific chapter describes the ozone radiative forcing with CMAM model ozone concentrations.
