title: Simple Biosphere model version 4.2 (SiB4) simulations for the present day atmosphere with 500 ppt OCS and the two OCS geoengineering scenarios with 4.8 ppb and 35.5 ppb OCS.

description: This dataset was prepared for a publication by von Hobe et al. (2023): <strong>Comment on “An approach to sulfate geoengineering with surface emissions of carbonyl sulfide” by Quaglia et al. (2022)</strong> In that publication, the data are displayed in Figures 1 and 2. Simple Biosphere model version 4.2 (SiB4, Haynes et al., 2019; Sellers et al., 1986) was used to calculate (i) the average increase in evapotranspiration anticipated under an elevated OCS scenario for the years 2000-2021 on a 0.5 ° latitude x 0.5 ° longitude grid and (ii) OCS uptake by plants and soils, per month, at baseline (500 ppt) and elevated (4.8 and 35.5 ppb) OCS levels averaged over the years 2000-2021. - - - - - - - - - - - <em>File 1: vonHobe_et_al_2023_CarbonylSulfideGeoengineeringScenarios_DeltaEvapotranspiration_GloballyGridded_SiB4.nc</em> File Format: netCDF Index Variables: latitude longitude Parameters: percent_diff_et: relative increase in % of evapotranspiration in a scenario where 20% of terrestrial plants exhibit a 50% increase in stomatal conductance under high OCS - - - - - - <em>File 2: vonHobe_et_al_2023_CarbonylSulfideGeoengineeringScenarios_BiosphereUptake_MonthlyIntegrated_SiB4.csv</em> File Format: comma delimited text file (.csv) Index Variable: time: monthly, format m/dd/yy Parameters: ocs_veg_base: simulated monthly OCS uptake by terrestrial vegetation at an atmospheric OCS mole fraction of 500 ppt ocs_soil_base: simulated monthly OCS uptake by soils at an atmospheric OCS mole fraction of 500 ppt ocs_veg_4.8ppb: simulated monthly OCS uptake by terrestrial vegetation at an atmospheric OCS mole fraction of 4.8 ppb ocs_soil_4.8ppb: simulated monthly OCS uptake by soils at an atmospheric OCS mole fraction of 4.8 ppb ocs_veg_35.5ppb: simulated monthly OCS uptake by terrestrial vegetation at an atmospheric OCS mole fraction of 35.5 ppb ocs_soil_35.5ppb: simulated monthly OCS uptake by soils at an atmospheric OCS mole fraction of 35.5 ppb - - - - - - - - - - - <strong>References:</strong> Haynes, K.
