EMAC global CO2 data and high resolved EMAC data along AirCore Flights (S4D)

The Data provided is necessary to reproduce the research described in the manuscript "CO2 variability and seasonal cycle in the UTLS: Insights from EMAC model and AirCore observational data", https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-2025-2648. The simulation TPC1SD-1 simulated the years 2000-2019 with 22 years of spin-up for the dynamics and CO2 tracers, and 2 years with interactive atmospheric chemistry.TPC1SD-2 extended TPC1SD-1 from 2019-06 to 2024-06. The output of the S4D submodel (sampling in four dimensions, Jöckel et al. 2016) of four CO2 tracers is included. It is the temporal high resolved (12 min) EMAC output along the flight path of the AirCore meassurements.The output is on model levels but can be interpolated onto pressure level for each timestep using the formula p(lev) = hyam(lev) + hybm(lev) * tps(time)with hyam (Pa) and hybm (1) are hybrid coefficients, tps (Pa) the surface pressure along the flight track.
