Global Surface Ozone Concentration Dataset 1990-2017 Mapped at Fine Resolution through the Bayesian Maximum Entropy Data Fusion of Observations and Model Output

This global surface ozone concentration dataset corresponds to the data developed in this paper: DeLang, M. N., J. S. Becker, K.-L. Chang, M. L. Serre, O. R. Cooper, M. G. Schultz, S. Schroder, X. Lu, L. Zhang, M. Deushi, B. Josse, C. A. Keller, J.-F. Lamarque, M. Lin, J. Liu, V. Marecal, S. A. Strode, K. Sudo, S. Tilmes, L. Zhang, S. Cleland, E. Collins, M. Brauer, and J. J. West (2021) Mapping yearly fine resolution global surface ozone through the Bayesian Maximum Entropy data fusion of observations and model output for 1990-2017, Environmental Science & Technology, 55, 4389-4398, doi: 10.1021/acs.est.0c07742. Ozone concentrations are estimated as described in the paper, with output shown for the Ozone Season Daily Maximum 8-hr metric (OSDMA8) for each year between 1990 and 2017, at 0.1 degree spatial resolution. Ozone is estimated through data fusion of output from several global models, with observations of ozone collected by TOAR. The data fusion involves application of the M3Fusion method to create a multi-model composite of several global models, followed by BME data fusion, as described in the paper. The *.nc file contains the latitude, longitude, ozone concentration estimate, and estimated variance for each 0.1 x 0.1 degree grid cell. Please contact Jason West ([e-mail]) with questions about the dataset. We'd like to hear from you to know how you're using the data!
