Interannual Variability of the North Polar Vortex in the Lower Stratosphere During the UARS Mission
Three of the four northern winters since the launch of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) had daily NMC minimum temperatures in the lower stratosphere that approached or fell below the lowest values experienced during the previous 13 years. These low temperatures were more conducive to f...

| description | Three of the four northern winters since the launch of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) had daily NMC minimum temperatures in the lower stratosphere that approached or fell below the lowest values experienced during the previous 13 years. These low temperatures were more conducive to formation of polar stratospheric clouds and thus to associated chlorine activation and associated chemical loss of ozone in the lower stratosphere. |
