Polar atmospheric and aerosol river detection catalogs
Description
These detection catalogs of atmospheric and aerosol rivers were created for the publication Lapere et al., "Polar aerosol atmospheric rivers: detection, characteristics and potential applications", Journal of Geophysical Research, Submitted. The associated methodology is described in this publication.
They provide binary detection of Atmospheric river (AR), Black carbon aerosol atmospheric river (BC_AER), Dust aerosol atmospheric river (DU_AER), Sea salt aerosol atmospheric river (SS_AER) and Organic carbon aerosol atmospheric river (OC_AER), in NetCDF format, for the period 1980-2022, with a 3-hour time resolution and 1x1° spatial resolution, for the regions 30°-90°N (indicated by the suffix "NH") and 30°-90°S (indicated by the suffix "SH").
The code for pre-processing raw MERRA2 data, along with the detection algorithm are also provided here as Python Jupyter notebooks.
