Seasonal persistence of northern low- and middle-latitude anomalies of ozone and other trace gases in the upper stratosphere
[1] Analysis of observed ozone profiles in Northern Hemisphere low and middle latitudes reveals the seasonal persistence of ozone anomalies in both the lower and upper stratosphere. Principal component analysis is used to detect that above 16 hPa the persistence is strongest in the latitude band 15–45 N, while below 16 hPa the strongest persistence is found over 45–60 N. In both cases, ozone an...
متن کاملOzone production and loss rate measurements in the middle stratosphere
We present the first simultaneous measurements of HOx, NOx, and Clx radicals in the middle stratosphere obtained during a balloon flight at 34 N in September 1989, along with calculations from a photochemical model, to show that NOx catalytic cycles dominate loss of ozone (O3) for altitudes between 24 and 38 km; the observed abundance of ClO is lower than that expected for altitudes above 30 km...

متن کاملSignificant radiative impact of volcanic aerosol in the lowermost stratosphere
Despite their potential to slow global warming, until recently, the radiative forcing associated with volcanic aerosols in the lowermost stratosphere (LMS) had not been considered. Here we study volcanic aerosol changes in the stratosphere using lidar measurements from the NASA CALIPSO satellite and aircraft measurements from the IAGOS-CARIBIC observatory. Between 2008 and 2012 volcanism freque...
