摘要：

The North Atlantic Climate System Integrated Study (ACSIS) was a large multidisciplinary research programme funded by the UK's Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). ACSIS ran from 2016 to 2022 and brought together around 80 scientists from seven leading UK-based environmental research institutes to deliver major advances in the understanding of North Atlantic climate variability and extremes. Here, we present an overview of the data generated by the ACSIS programme. The datasets described cover the North Atlantic Ocean, the atmosphere above it (including its composition), and Arctic sea ice. Atmospheric composition datasets include measurements from seven aircraft campaigns (45 flights in total, 0-10 km altitude range) in the northeastern Atlantic (similar to 15-55 degrees N, similar to 40 degrees W-5 degrees E) made at intervals of 6 months to 2 years between February 2017 and May 2022. The flights measured chemical species (including greenhouse gases; ozone precursors; and volatile organic compounds - VOCs) and aerosols (organic aerosol - OA; SO4; NH4; NO3; and non-sea salt chloride - nss-Cl) (10.5285/6285564c34a246fc9ba5ce053d85e5e7, FAAM et al., 2024). Ground-based stations at the Cape Verde Atmospheric Observatory (CVAO), Penlee Point Atmospheric Observatory (PPAO), and Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML) recorded ozone, ozone precursors, halocarbons, greenhouse gases (CO2 and methane), SO2, and photolysis rates (CVAO; http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/81693aad69409100b1b9a247b9ae75d5, National Centre for Atmospheric Science et al., 2010); O-3 and CH4 (PPAO, https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/8f1ff8ea77534e08b03983685990a9b0 (Plymouth Marine Laboratory and Yang, 2017); and aerosols (PML, 10.5285/e74491c96ef24df29a9342a3d57b5939, Smyth, 2024), respectively. Complementary model simulations of atmospheric composition were performed with the UK Earth System Model (UKESM1) for the period from 1982 to 2020 using Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) historical forcing up to 2014 and Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP) scenario SSP3-7.0 from 2015 to 2020. Model temperature and winds were relaxed towards ERA reanalysis. Monthly mean model data for ozone, NO, NO2, CO, methane, stratospheric ozone tracers, and 30 regionally emitted tracers are available for download (https://data.ceda.ac.uk/badc/acsis/UKESM1-hindcasts, Abraham, 2024). ACSIS also generated new ocean heat content diagnostics (https://doi.org/10/g6wm, https://doi.org/10/g8g2, Moat et al., 2021a-b) and gridded temperature and salinity based on objectively mapped Argo measurements (https://doi.org/10.5285/fe8e524d-7f04-41f3-e053-6c86abc04d51 King, 2023). An ensemble of atmosphere-forced global-ocean sea-ice simulations using the NEMO-CICE model was performed with horizontal resolutions of 1/4 and 1/12 degrees covering the period from 1958 to 2020 using several different atmosphere-reanalysis-based surface forcing datasets, supplemented by additional global simulations and stand-alone sea-ice model simulations with advanced sea-ice physics using the CICE model (http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/770a885a8bc34d51ad71e87ef346d6a8, Megann et al., 2021e). Output is stored as monthly averages and includes 3D potential temperature, salinity, zonal velocity, meridional velocity, and vertical velocity; 2D sea-surface height, mixed-layer depth, surface heat, and freshwater fluxes; ice concentration and thickness; and a wide variety of other variables. In addition to the data presented here, we provide a very brief overview of several other datasets that were generated during ACSIS and have been described previously in the literature.
