Abstract:

This product is a reanalysis of MOPITT CO observations within the Community Atmosphere Model with Chemistry of the Community Earth System Model (CESM CAM-chem). The assimilation of MOPITT and meteorological observations was carried out using the ensemble-based Data Assimilation Research Testbed (DART).

Citation counts are compiled through information provided by publicly-accessible APIs according to the guidelines developed through the https://makedatacount.org/ project. If journals do not provide citation information to these publicly-accessible services, then this citation information will not be included in RDA citation counts. Additionally citations that include dataset DOIs are the only types included in these counts, so legacy citations without DOIs, references found in publication acknowledgements, or references to a related publication that describes a dataset will not be included in these counts.
