This dataset contains a global ocean emission inventory of the sulfur-containing trace gases carbonyl sulfide (OCS/COS) and carbon disulfide (CS2). It covers the period 2000-2019, and includes a monthly average and an average diel cycle for each month for sea surface concentrations and emissions to the atmosphere. The spatial resolution is 2.8° x 2.8° at the equator (T42 grid), the depth extends from the surface to the mixed layer depth. Carbonyl sulfide (OCS) is the most abundant, long-lived sulphur gas in the atmosphere and a major supplier of sulfur to the stratospheric sulfate aerosol layer. The short-lived gas carbon disulfide (CS2) is oxidized to OCS and constitutes a major indirect source to the atmospheric budget of OCS. We encourage the use of the data provided here as input for atmospheric modelling studies to further assess the atmospheric OCS budget and the role of OCS in climate.
