Data for "Idealized Particle-Resolved Large-Eddy Simulations to Evaluate the Impact of Emissions Spatial Heterogeneity on CCN Activity"

This dateset contains data files necessary to replicate figures from "Idealized Particle-Resolved Large-Eddy Simulations to Evaluate the Impact of Emissions Spatial Heterogeneity on CCN Activity" submitted to Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics.

Within the compressed folder data.zip are two subdirectories, "processed_data" and "spatial-het". The "processed_data" directory contains netCDF files which contain a subset of simulation output used in figure generation. The "spatial-het" subdirectory contains a .csv file with spatial heterogeneity values computed via an exact algorithm of the spatial heterogeneity metric described by Mohebalhojeh et al. 2025. The subdirectory "sh-patterns" contains .csv files for each emissions scenario. Each entry corresponds to a single grid cell over a domain of dimension 100x100 (lateral resolution of the computational domain employed in this paper).

Within scripts.zip are python notebooks for generating figures. Additional python modules are included which contain helper functions for notebooks. Furthermore, a Fortran version of the spatial heterogeneity metric is included alongside shells scripts for creating a python environment in which the code can be compiled and convert into a Python module. Note that the create_env.sh and compile_nsh.sh scripts must be run prior to executing cells in notebooks to make use of the spatial heterogeneity subroutines.

<b>*Note*:</b> New in this V2: Following an initial review, an additional figure was requested, which required updates to both data.zip (adding one new NC file: no-heterogeneity_met-vars_subset.nc) and scripts.zip (a minor addition to a Python notebook). A README in PDF format has also been uploaded to provide a summary of the dataset.
