Description

This dataset provides top-of-atmosphere (TOA) all-sky radiative kernels for stratospheric aerosols, from Yu & Huang (2026, JGR: Atmospheres, https://doi.org/10.1029/2025JD044278). The kernels are provided as monthly means on a 2.5° × 2.0° global grid and can be applied to aerosol optical depth observations to estimate the stratospheric aerosol radiative effect. Example code in MATLAB and Python, along with analysis scripts to reproduce the paper's results, are included.
