Supplementary data for "How adequately are elevated moist layers represented in reanalysis and satellite observations?"

The NetCDF files are the collocation datasets over Manus Island between GRUAN radiosondes, ERA5, the CLIMCAPS Aqua Level 2 retrieval dataset and the IASI L2 Climate Data Record (CDR). The collocation criteria are 30 minutes and 50 km. Additional filter criteria for the individual datasets and processing steps are described in the manuscript.

The datasets are created using the collocation toolkit included in the python package "typhon". Variables in each dataset are split into two groups that represent the two collocated datasets. Each group contains a selection of the original dataset's variables, which are used in the manuscript such as H2O VMR, temperature, cloud fraction, etc. The variables are organized along the dimension "collocation" and along dataset and variable specific additional dimensions. Further documentation about the collocation toolkit and the structure of the resulting datasets can be found at https://github.com/atmtools/typhon.
