The MACC Reanalysis is a global reanalysis data set of atmospheric composition (AC), made available by the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS). The dataset spans the period 2003 to 2012. The spatial resolution of the data set is approximately 80 km (T255 spectral) on 60 vertical levels from the surface up to 0.1 hPa for the analysed species and 1.125° by 1.125° at the same 60 levels for the other chemical species.

The MACC Reanalysis is a global reanalysis data set of atmospheric composition (AC), made available by the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS). The dataset spans the period 2003 to 2012. The spatial resolution of the data set is approximately 80 km (T255 spectral) on 60 vertical levels from the surface up to 0.1 hPa for the analysed species and 1.125° by 1.125° at the same 60 levels for the other chemical species.

For the complete description and technical details see the ECMWF wiki. We replicated only few surface variables: aerosols at 550 nm, see below for list.

Known Issues

A list of known issues is available from the documentation page linked above. Please note there's a known issue for one of the variables we replicated:

    • Sea salt aerosol mixing ratio above freshwater:The model is not distinguishing between sea and freshwater in the context of sea-salt emissions. Unfortunately, this appears to affect all cycles from the MACC reanalysis. A fix is planned to be implemented in a future model release (45r1) and will be effective from the implementation date on. This means that the fix will not be retrospective for the MACC reanalysis but will be in future reanalysis.
