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 4. The dataset contains additional stratospheric aerosol forcing for injections of 6 Tg S a-1 OCS for several years over 5 tropical cities at the tropopause (97 hPa) calculated with the EMAC (ECHAM5/MESSy Atmospheric Chemistry) CCM (e.g. Brühl et al., 2018; Schallock et al., 2023). Data are given for a four year time series starting in January 2017. - - - - - - - - - - - - File format: netCDF Index Variables: time, 10 hourly, as 'day since 1997-01-01' (note that the two variables named time4 and time6 are identical) Parameters: SOLFORCCSO: instantaneous solar radiative forcing at the top of the atmosphere by aerosol due to continuous OCS injection near the tropical tropopause with surface mixing ratios of OCS were fixed to observations TOTFORCCSO: instantaneous total radiative forcing at the top of the atmosphere by aerosol due to continuous OCS injection near the tropical tropopause with surface mixing ratios of OCS were fixed to observations SOLFORCCSO_FREE: instantaneous solar radiative forcing at the top of the atmosphere by aerosol due to continuous OCS injection near the tropical tropopause with surface mixing ratios of OCS allowed to increase from downward transport TOTFORCCSO_FREE: instantaneous total radiative forcing at the top of the atmosphere by aerosol due to continuous OCS injection near the tropical tropopause with surface mixing ratios of OCS allowed to increase from downward transport - - - - - - - - - - - - References: Brühl, C., Schallock, J., Klingmüller, K., Robert, C., Bingen, C., Clarisse, L., Heckel, A., North, P., and Rieger, L.: Stratospheric aerosol radiative forcing simulated by the chemistry climate model EMAC using Aerosol CCI satellite data, Atmos.
