Regional distribution of annual sea-to-air OCS fluxes for the present day atmosphere with 500 ppt OCS and the two OCS geoengineering scenarios with 4.8 ppb and 35.5 ppb.

This dataset was prepared for a publication by von Hobe et al. (2023):

Comment on “An approach to sulfate geoengineering with surface emissions of carbonyl sulfide” by Quaglia et al. (2022)

In that publication, the data are displayed in Figure 3.

Average annual sea-to-air OCS fluxes on a 2.8 ° latitude x 2.8 ° longitude grid for the present day atmosphere and for the two OCS emission scenarios considered by Quaglia et al. (2022) were obtained from a 2003 - 2019 simulation, using a model described in Lennartz et al. (2021).
