Monthly aerosol optical properties from MERRA-2 reanalysis


  • Global distribution of monthly aerosol optical properties (extinction, single scattering albedo and assymetry parameter) created from the NASA MERRA-2 3-hourly reanalysis profiles of aerosol mixing ratio and relative humidity, and MERRA-2 species level aerosol optical properties for different humidities and spectral bands. The data are meant to be used in climate model or for other applications requiring aerosol optical properties. Click on the link to ACCESS DATA

Model post/re Proc scripts


  • Python Scripts based on python xarray that could be usefull for model post-proc, building optical properties data base, etc ... (redirect to github personal page).

Teaching material, hands on


  • Notebooks on atmospheric dispersion and chemistry modelling
