contents We present a novel multiyear global dataset of height-resolved number concentrations of cloud condensation nuclei (NCCN) at a supersaturation of 0.20 %. The NCCN is estimated from the spaceborne CALIPSO (Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infra-Red Pathfinder Satellite Observation) lidar measurements using the OMCAM (Optical Modeling of CALIPSO Aerosol Microphysics) algorithm. The data also includes aerosol-type-specific NCCN for five aerosol types: dust, marine, polluted continental, elevated smoke, and clean continental. It has a monthly resolution, covering the time period from June 2006 to December 2021. We further provide a 3D climatology of aerosol-type-specific NCCN estimated from the complete time series. Data are provided as yearly netCDF files (netCDF version 4), given at a horizontal latitude-longitude grid of 2° × 5° and a vertical resolution of 60 m.
