Abstract: The Data Assimilation Office at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center is currently producing a multiyear gridded global atmospheric dataset for use in climate research, including tropospheric chemistry applications. The data, which are being made available to the scientific community, are well suited for climate research since they are produced by a fixed assimilation system designed to minimize the spinup in the hydrological cycle. By using a nonvarying system, the variability due to algorithm change is eliminated and geophysical variability can ...
