Description
Summary:This dataset consists of a two-month simulation with the isotope-enabled regional numerical weather prediction model COSMOiso over the eastern subtropical North Atlantic. The simulation was performed with explicit convection at a horizontal grid spacing of 0.125° (in rotated coordinates, corresponding to approximately 14 km) and with 60 hybrid levels in the vertical. Initial and lateral boundary conditions were provided every 6 hours by the isotope-enabled global climate model ECHAM5-wiso. The 1-hourly outputs of the COSMOiso simulation 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 subtropical atmospheric water cycle.
