TOMCAT model data & IASI satellite data of O3, CO, H2O, CH4 and OH/derived OH for 2010 and 2017

Description

Monthly mean data of ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), water vapour (H2O), methane (CH4) and the hydroxyl radical (OH) for 2010 and 2017.

Model data is from the 3D chemical transport model TOMCAT (Chipperfield, 2006).

Satellite observations are from the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) on the MetOp-A satellite and retrieved using schemes developed by the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL). The Ch4 is from RAL's CH4 retrieval scheme (Siddans et al. 2020) and the O3, CO and H2O retrievals are from the extended version of RAL’s Infrared and Microwave Sounding (IMS-extended) scheme (Pope et al. 2021). 

Full description of the data can be found in Pimlott et al. (2022) (preprint: https://doi.org/10.5194/acp-2022-79) which has now been accepted for publication in ACP.
