Description
This dataset contains forecast (fcst) of time-averaged frequency data (tavg1hr). It is built by merging the original GEOS-CF collections chm_tavg_1hr_glo_L1440x721_slv, met_tavg_1hr_glo_L1440x721_slv, and xgc_tavg_1hr_glo_L1440x721_slv. Use the 'creation_time' and 'forecast_time' properties to select data of interest. The Goddard Earth Observing System Composition Forecast (GEOS-CF) system is a global constituent prediction system from NASA's Global Modeling and Assimilation Office(GMAO).
GEOS-CF offers a tool for atmospheric chemistry research, with the goal to supplement NASA's broad range of space-based and in-situ observations. GEOS-CF expands on the GEOS weather and aerosol modeling system by introducing the GEOS-Chem chemistry module to provide hindcasts and 5-days forecasts of atmospheric constituents including ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), coarse particulate matter (PM10), and fine particulate matter (PM2.5). The chemistry module integrated in GEOS-CF is identical to the offline GEOS-Chem model and readily benefits from the innovations provided by the GEOS-Chem community. Outputs are provided globally at 0.25° horizontal resolution. Please refer to the GEOS-CF Product Page for more details.
In October 2025, a major update to the GEOS-CF system was introduced as GEOS-CF v2. This change included updates to the GEOS atmospheric general circulation model and the GEOS-Chem chemical model, replaying meteorology to GEOS IT, direct assimilation of stratospheric profiles and column ozone from NASA Aura OMI and MLS instruments, and updates to the anthropogenic emission source. Evaluation of these updates is ongoing; results will be added into this description as they become available. Preliminary results suggest that, in relation to GEOS-CF v1, GEOS-CF v2 dramatically improves the representation of PM2.5 and SO2 near the surface. Representations of O3 and NO2 are generally improved throughout most of the atmospheric column, with and NO2 being substantially lower in GEOS-CF v2 compared with v1. While representation of near-surface O3 is improved compared to GEOS-CF v1, there remain high biases compared with ozone monitor data from the US Environmental Protection Agency.
Users of GEOS-CF are encouraged to treat outputs from the original system (v1) and the new system (v2) separately in their analysis, due to the extensive changes between the systems.
