Hourly Stratospheric Tracer Simulation Data based on WRF-Chem (May 2024)
Abstract
This dataset provides high-resolution, hourly simulation results of stratospheric tracers for the entire month of May 2024. The simulations were conducted using the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with Chemistry (WRF-Chem). The spatial domain primarily covers East Asia (spanning 6.97°N to 49.42°N and 67.06°E to 150.94°E), encompassing China and its surrounding regions.The dataset consists of 745 NetCDF (.nc) files. Key variables included are geographic coordinates (XLAT, XLONG), simulation timestamps (XTIME), and a specific stratospheric passive tracer. Passive tracers are utilized to track the transport and intrusion of stratospheric air masses into the troposphere.This dataset is designed to support research on Stratosphere-Troposphere Transport (STT), ozone downward transport, and the impact of stratospheric air on regional air quality and atmospheric chemistry dynamics in East Asia.
