Data for: "Materials with smaller absorptivity could reduce detrimental impacts of stratospheric aerosol injection on the hydrological cycle"
Abstract
Here we present the data from model simulations using SOCOLv4 used for the data-analysis in the manuscript "Materials with smaller absorptivity reduce detrimental impacts of stratospheric aerosol injection on the hydrological cycle". Structure of data files: SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5 are reference ensembles of a middle of the road pathway and a high emission pathway. G6{compound} are ensembles of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection experiments using different materials with the same GHG emissions as in SSP5-8.5. SAI is used in these experiments to bring surface temperatures down to SSP2-4.5. For each ensemble we present two zip_files, one containing monthly data and one containing annual data. Content of data files: Each ensemble has the following datasets: annual_vars_2080to2999_[name][number] (variables used to calculate differences between SAI and reference annually) monthly_vars_2080to2999_[name][number] (variables used to calculate differences between SAI and reference per season) annual_vars_full_[name][number] (variables used for assessing temporal development of simulations) name is the ensemble name number stands for the ensemble member. SAI ensembles also contain: monthly_AB_2080to2999_[name][number] annual_AB_full_[name][number] Which contains the total aerosol burden (baer) and the stratospheric aerosol burden (sbaer) in S/cm3 for G6sulfur, and the total aerosol burden (ca_baer) and stratospheric aerosol burden (ca_sbaer) in SP/cm3 for the solid particles (SPs)
