Datasets for Impacts of Secondary Ice Production on the Microphysics and Dynamics of Deep Convective Clouds in Different Environments

This repository contains the simulation data and analysis scripts supporting the figures in Waman et al. (2026), "Impacts of Secondary Ice Production on the Microphysics and Dynamics of Deep Convective Clouds in Different Environments," in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics. Simulation data The simulation data are provided as five NetCDF4 files, each organized into groups corresponding to individual figures in the paper. The data represent output from ICON-NWP simulations using a 2-moment bulk microphysics scheme at 1.6 km horizontal grid spacing, with and without secondary ice production (SIP) processes. CAIPEEX_Waman_etal_2026_ACP.nc -- ICON simulation data for the CAIPEEX case (30 September 2019, India). DCMEX_Waman_etal_2026_ACP.nc -- ICON simulation data for the DCMEX case (New Mexico, USA). MC3E_Waman_etal_2026_ACP.nc -- ICON simulation data for the MC3E case (11-12 May 2011, Oklahoma, USA). ORCESTRA_Waman_etal_2026_ACP.nc -- ICON simulation data for the ORCESTRA case (3 September 2024, Tropical Atlantic). Combined_Waman_etal_2026_ACP.nc -- Multi-campaign comparison data (Fig. 15). Each file contains groups labeled by figure number (e.g., fig06a, fig11). Each group includes variable-level metadata (units, long names) and group-level attributes describing the campaign, model configuration, and figure content. Analysis and plotting scripts Five Jupyter notebooks reproduce all main figures in the paper directly from the archived NetCDF files above, without requiring access to the raw ICON model output. caipeex_analy_Waman2026_ACP.ipynb -- Figures for the CAIPEEX case. dcmex_analy_Waman2026_ACP.ipynb -- Figures for the DCMEX case. mc3e_analy_Waman2026_ACP.ipynb -- Figures for the MC3E case. orcestra_analy_Waman2026_ACP.ipynb -- Figures for the ORCESTRA case. Fig_Waman26.ipynb -- Multi-campaign accumulated precipitation comparison (Fig. 15). Observational datasets used for validation (aircraft probes, EarthCARE CPR, HALO-MIRA, GPM, and shipborne Cloudnet retrievals) can be obtained following the links given in the data availability statement in Waman et al. 2026.
