LP DAAC Releases EMITL4ESM Data Product!

[LP DAAC - jwilson]

LP DAAC is pleased to announce the release of NASA’s Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) Level 4 Earth System Model Products (EMITL4ESM) Version 1 data product. This data product provides radiative forcing outputs, along with other ancillary outputs generated from different Earth System Models (ESMs). ESMs are complex models that integrate relevant physical, chemical, biological, and human components to simulate multiple aspects of large-scale systems on Earth. These data are based on multiple models, meteorological inputs, emissions/concentration scenarios, and input mineral maps include using EMIT L3 Aggregated Mineral Spectral Abundance and Uncertainty 0.5 Deg (EMITL3ASA) data.

EMITL4ESM data provides radiative forcing outputs to help researchers better understand how surface mineralogy and atmospheric dust impacts the heating and cooling of the Earth’s atmosphere and surface.
