The data comprises 3-D fields of aerosol species cloud condensation nuclei numbers computed for two different supersaturations (0.2% and 0.8%). The aerosol species are as follows: small mode sea salt (radius: 0.03-0.5 micrometer), medium mode sea salt (radius: 0.5-5 micrometer), large mode sea salt (radius: 5-20 micrometer), hydrophilic black carbon, hydrophilic organic matter and sulfate. Aerosol species ccn are computed using CAMS reanalysis EAC4 aerosol mass mixing ratios, respectively.
