Numerical weather simulations using COSMOiso from Dec 2016 – March 2017 along the ship track of the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition

This dataset consists of nine simulations with the isotope-enabled regional numerical weather prediction model COSMOiso, which cover the ship track of the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) in time and space. The simulations have a spatial resolution of 0.125° (approximately 14 km) and are...

Description
Summary:This dataset consists of nine simulations with the isotope-enabled regional numerical weather prediction model COSMOiso, which cover the ship track of the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) in time and space. The simulations have a spatial resolution of 0.125° (approximately 14 km) and are initialised and driven by 6-hourly global ECHAM5-wiso simulations. The 1-hourly outputs of the simulations contain a variety of environmental parameters, including the isotopic composition of water vapour, rain water, cloud water, ice water and snow water, which allows for a detailed description of the meteorology and the atmospheric water cycle during ACE.
