Tropospheric ozone variations governed by changes in stratospheric circulation
Thedownward transport of stratospheric ozone is an important natural source of tropospheric ozone, particularly in the upper troposphere, where changes in ozone have their largest radiative e ect1. Stratospheric circulation is projected to intensify over the coming century, which could lead to an increase in the flux of ozone from the stratosphere to the troposphere2–4. However, large uncertain...
متن کاملEffects of stratospheric ozone recovery on photochemistry and ozone air quality in the troposphere
There has been significant stratospheric ozone depletion since the late 1970s due to ozone-depleting substances (ODSs). With the implementation of the Montreal Protocol and its amendments and adjustments, stratospheric ozone is expected to recover towards its pre-1980 level in the coming decades. In this study, we examine the implications of stratospheric ozone recovery for the tropospheric che...
متن کاملImpact of solar-induced stratospheric ozone decline on Southern Hemisphere westerlies during the Late Maunder Minimum
[1] The Southern Hemisphere Westerly Winds (SWW) constitute an important zonal circulation system that dominates the dynamics of the Southern Hemisphere mid-latitudes. In the present study, we analyze results from two transient simulations (1630–2000 AD) conducted with the coupled atmosphere-ocean model EGMAM (ECHO-G with Middle Atmosphere Model): one simulation with fixed stratospheric ozone c...
متن کاملThe impact of anthropogenic chlorine emissions, stratospheric ozone change and chemical feedbacks on stratospheric water
Mixing ratios of water (H2O) in the stratosphere appear to increase due to increased input of H2O and methane from the troposphere and due to intensified oxidation of CH4 in the stratosphere, but many of the underlying mechanisms are not yet understood. Here we identify and quantify three chemical mechanisms which must have led to more efficient oxidation of CH4 in the stratosphere over the pas...
متن کاملA climatology of the diurnal variations in stratospheric and mesospheric ozone over Bern, Switzerland
The ground-based radiometer GROMOS, stationed in Bern (47.95 N, 7.44 E), Switzerland, has a unique data set: it obtains ozone profiles from November 1994 to present with a time resolution of 30 min and equivalent quality during nightand daytime. Here, we derive a monthly climatology of the daily ozone cycle from 17 years of GROMOS observation. We present the diurnal ozone variation of the strat...
