(2016). The spatial extent of the data set is from 27.5° W to 53.4° E (150 steps) and 18.4° N to 83.4° N (162 steps). The vertical extent is from 56 m to 20.3 km above sea level (14 steps). The temporal extent is from day-of-year (DOY) 122 to DOY 150 (hourly steps). A scientific description can be found in Table 1 of Baranizadeh et al. (2016). At this point, the two data sets Napari-TUV-DE and Napari-RADM-DE mentioned there are not available. The data files are made available as netCDF 4 file sets with one file per day of May 2008 containing all simulated properties each. Simulated particulate matter is given in 43 size sections by individual variables, e.g., PNH4_5 for ammonia size section 5. The following table explicitly lists the aerosol size sections described in, e.g., Jung et al. (2010, §13). | aerosol size section | lower cut point [µm] | |----------------------|----------------------| | 1 | 0.000897998 | | 2 | 0.001131442 | | 3 | 0.001425482 | | 4 | 0.001795996 | | 5 | 0.002262883 | | 6 | 0.002850965 | | 7 | 0.003591991 | | 8 | 0.004525766 | | 9 | 0.005701929 | | 10 | 0.007183537 | | 11 | 0.009050526 | | 12 | 0.011403298 | | 13 | 0.014367519 | | 14 | 0.018102058 | | 15 | 0.022807157 | | 16 | 0.028735038 | | 17 | 0.036203671 | | 18 | 0.045613752 | | 19 | 0.057470076 | | 20 | 0.072407788 | | 21 | 0.091228066 | | 22 | 0.114940151 | | 23 | 0.144815575 | | 24 | 0.182456132 | | 25 | 0.229880303 | | 26 | 0.28963115 | | 27 | 0.364912263 | | 28 | 0.459760606 | | 29 | 0.579261855 | | 30 | 0.729823966 | | 31 | 0.919520766 | | 32 | 1.158523594 | | 33 | 1.459648492 | | 34 | 1.839041977 | | 35 | 2.31704775 | | 36 | 2.919296985 | | 37 | 3.678083508 | | 38 | 4.634094939 | | 39 | 5.83859397 | | 40 | 7.356167461 | | 41 | 9.268189548 | | 42 | 14.4244168 | | 43 | 28.28427125 | Table 1 in Baranizadeh et al. (2016) lists two simulations called Napari-TUV-DE and Napari-RADM-DE which were used in that publication but which were not created at Stockholm University and are therefore not included here. Please refer to Napari et al. (2002) for details. All simulations were carried out for the month May, in particular 2008-05-01 (DOY 122) through 2008-05-29 (DOY 150). The authors of the Baranizadeh et al. (2016) paper welcome that all users of this dataset cite their article.
