Although initial tests showed good agreement with the series computed by T. Johnson, and including them in the model reportedly reduced residuals of analysis of GRACE satellite data, you should be aware that this is still experimental series.
The series of the Stokes coefficients of the harmonic expansion of the contribution of the atmosphere to the geopotential to degree/order 72/72 and 20/20 are computed. The time resolution of the series is 6 hours. The series start on 1976.01.01_00:00. NCEP Reanalysis pressure field with spatical resolution 2.5ox2.5o and the 0.25ox0.25o land-sea mask are used for computations.

The time series have zero mean and no signal at S1 and S2 frequencies. The total atmospheric contribution to geopotential is the sum of the time series and the model of harmonic site geopotential variations caused by atmospheric tides at the S1 and S2 frequencies.
