Stratospheric control of upward wave flux near the tropopause

[1] Using an idealized, global primitive equation model of the stratosphere-troposphere system in which all tropospheric variability is surpressed, we demonstrate the existence of internal modes of stratospheric variability. The variability in our model is similar to that observed in the winter stratosphere, consisting of sudden-warming like, wave-driven decelerations of the polar vortex follow...

Residual Circulation and Tropopause Structure

The effect of large-scale dynamics as represented by the residual mean meridional circulation in the transformed Eulerian sense, in particular its stratospheric part, on lower stratospheric static stability and tropopause structure is studied using a comprehensive chemistry–climate model (CCM), reanalysis data, and simple idealized modeling. Dynamical forcing of static stability as associated w...

Tropopause Structure and the Role of Eddies

This paper presents a series of dynamical states using an idealized three-dimensional general circulation model with gray radiation and latent heat release. Beginning with the case of radiative–convective equilibrium, an eddy-free two-dimensional state with zonally symmetric flow is developed, followed by a threedimensional state that includes baroclinic eddy fluxes. In both dry and moist cases...

A novel tropopause-related climatology of ozone profiles

A new ozone climatology, based on ozonesonde and satellite measurements, spanning the altitude region between the earth’s surface and ∼60 km is presented (TpO3 climatology). This climatology is novel in that the ozone profiles are categorized according to calendar month, latitude and local tropopause heights. Compared to the standard latitude–month categorization, this presentation improves the...

Identifying the top of the tropical tropopause layer from vertical mass flux analysis and CALIPSO lidar cloud observations

[1] We identify the top of the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) by analyzing the vertical mass flux profile based on radiative transfer calculations employing observed atmospheric profiles and cloud information. We find that the top of the TTL is located at 18.7 km (70 mb). We have analyzed the CALIPSO lidar cloud observations from June 2006 to February 2007, which indicates that almost no cloud...
