The Role of deposition of cosmogenic 10Be for the detectability of solar proton events

Abstract

The data contains the model output (.nc-data) used in our paper "The Role of Deposition of Cosmogenic 10Be for the Detectability of Solar Proton Events". Our simulations were carried out with the chemistry-climate model ECHAM/MESSy Atmospheric Chemistry (EMAC) (Jöckel et al., 2016), which is based on the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast Hamburg general circulation model 5 (ECHAM5) (Roeckner et al., 2006) and the modular earth submodel system (MESSy) model version 2.55. The simulations were conducted using a horizontal/vertical resolution of T42L47MA corresponding to a Gaussian grid of 2.8 by 2.8° in latitude and longitude, 47 layers in height, with the model top at 0.01 hPa (~80 km), and pre-industrial conditions (time slice 1850), with fixed sea surface temperatures and no interactive chemistry. The data contains e.g, data on the depostion flux and mole ratio of different 10Be tracers from galactic cosmic rays and solar energetic particles as well as some general meterological model output like precipitation, wind speed and surface temperatures.
