Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering Simulations for Winter Hemispheres

Simulation data from four experiments investigating the impact of stratospheric aerosol geoengineering implemented only in the winter hemispheres on the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and tropical monsoon regions. The data was generated using the CESM 1.2.2.1 model and published in a 2024 study. The dataset is 6.0 MB in size and includes NC and TXT file formats.

Use Cases

• Analyze shifts in the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) based on winter-only geoengineering forcing.
• Model impacts on tropical monsoon precipitation patterns based on hemispherically asymmetric aerosol injection.
• Validate climate model outputs for geoengineering scenarios based on the CESM 1.2.2.1 simulation framework.
• Study the atmospheric response to stratospheric aerosol injection based on seasonal and hemispheric constraints.

Strengths

• Data is directly linked to a peer-reviewed study (DOI: 10.1088/2752-5295/ae7200), providing clear scientific context.
• Uses a specific, documented climate model version (CESM 1.2.2.1), ensuring reproducibility.
• File size is 6.0 MB, making it manageable for download and initial analysis.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain statistical methods.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality and structure require manual inspection after download.
