El Chichon volcanic debris in an Arctic tropopause fold

A research flight with the NOAA WP-3D aircraft revealed evidence for stratospheric-tropospheric exchange within the Arctic through tropopause folding on the flank of the polar vortex. Observations showed descent of the tropopause and of stratospheric ozone to 700 mb along the west coast of Greenland...
