Copernicus Atmosphere Service MACC-IFS reanalysis of global total aerosol optical depth at multiple wavelengths for 2003-2012

Abstract:
This service provides a global reanalysis of total aerosol optical depth at 340, 355, 380, 400, 440, 469, 550, 500, 532, 550, 645, 670, 800, 858, 865, 1020, 1064, 1240, 1640 and 2130 nm for the period 2003 - 2012 using the IFS-LMD aerosol model. The reanalysis is available at 3-hourly intervals and the spatial resolution is 0.75 x 0.75 degree. The reanalysis fields are available in GRIB and NetCDF format.
