Overview and update of the SPARC Data Initiative: Comparison ofstratospheric composition measurements from satellite limbsounders
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract. The SPARC Data Initiative (SPARC, 2017) performed the first comprehensive assessment of currently available stratospheric composition measurements obtained from an international suite of space-based limb sounders. The initiative's main objectives were (1) to assess the state of data availability, (2) to compile vertically resolved, monthly zonal mean trace gas and aerosol climatologies, and (3) to perform a detailed inter-comparison of these climatologies, summarising useful information and highlighting differences among datasets. The vertically-resolved climatologies of 26 different atmospheric constituents extending over the region from the upper troposphere to the lower mesosphere (300–0.1 hPa) are provided on a common latitude-pressure grid and include most major long-lived trace gases (O3, H2O, N2O, CH4, CCl3F, and CCl2F2), transport tracers (HF, SF6, HCl, CO, HNO3, NOy), and shorter-lived trace gases important to stratospheric chemistry including nitrogens (NO, NO2, NOx, N

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
