ECHAM6.3-HAM2.3: Global Aerosol-Climate Model Output for Cloud and Forcing Analysis

Data supporting a submitted paper on the global aerosol-climate model ECHAM6.3-HAM2.3. Each tar file contains the data or instructions to reproduce a specific figure or table from the publication. The dataset was authored by David Neubauer of ETH Zurich for a 2019 submission to Geoscientific Model Development Discussions.

Use Cases

• Reproducing published climate model figures based on the tar file structure
• Evaluating cloud properties and aerosol effects using model output data
• Analyzing aerosol radiative forcing and climate sensitivity metrics
• Benchmarking the ECHAM-HAM model against observational or other model data

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a submitted scientific publication, providing clear research context
• Files are organized to correspond with specific figures and tables, aiding reproducibility
• Associated plotting scripts are referenced, facilitating visualization

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count and total data size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified
