2018-2022 mean tropospheric ozone (1° resolution)
1° x 1° gridded multi-annual mean tropospheric ozone column (2018-2022), combining 12 harmonised satellite data records. This TOAR II combined satellite record provided the observational basis for Section 4 of Hubert et al., 2026 (doi:10.1098/rsta.2025.0274). The combination algorithm is described in detail in Section 4.1 of the Supplementary Material (doi:10.6084/m9.figshare.c.8658250).
The netCDF file is CF-1.13 and ACDD-1.3 compliant and contains key variables
- troc (lat, lon) : 2018-2022 mean tropospheric ozone column (DU)
- troc_unc (lat, lon) : uncertainty of 2018-2022 mean tropospheric ozone column (DU)
and ancillary variables
- du_to_ppb (lat, lon) : multiply troc / troc_unc by this factor to obtain column-averaged dry-air mole fraction
- surface_pressure (lat, lon) : 2018-2022 mean surface pressure (hPa)
- tropopause_pressure (lat, lon) : 2018-2022 mean thermal tropopause pressure (hPa)
