Exploring the sensitivity of atmospheric nitrate concentrations to nitric acid uptake rate using the Met Office’s Unified Model: nitrate and nitric acid simulation data

This dataset contains nitrate and nitric acid simulation data to explore the sensitivity of atmospheric nitrate concentrations to nitric acid uptake rate using the Met Office’s Unified Model. The files are seperated into directories by simulation name - 1. A control simulation with no nitrate aerosol (CNTL); 2. A simulation with NH4·NO3 reaching equilibrium instantaneously (INSTANT); 3. A simulation with the HNO3 uptake rate set to 0.193 (FAST); and 4. A simulation with the HNO3 uptake rate 0.001 (SLOW). All simulations are performed with the Met Office Unified Model (UM or MetUM) in an N96L85 resolution.
