Study of the interannual ozone loss and the permeability of the Antarctic polar vortex from aerosol and ozone lidar measurements in Dumont dUrville (66.4°S 140°E)
International audience Systematic ground-based measurements of the ozone and aerosol stratospheric profile performed in the Dumont d'Urville (66.4°S, 140°E) Antarctic station are used to study the air subsidence in fall, the springtime ozone loss, and the vortex confinement on an interannual ba...

International audience Systematic ground-based measurements of the ozone and aerosol stratospheric profile performed in the Dumont d'Urville (66.4°S, 140°E) Antarctic station are used to study the air subsidence in fall, the springtime ozone loss, and the vortex confinement on an interannual basis. The data obtained mostly from March to October in the 1992–1998 time period are analyzed as a function of equivalent latitude in order to discriminate the measurements performed inside, at the edge or outside the vortex. The subsidence rate derived from the ozone measurements in the lower stratosphere prior to the destruction period and from the volcanic aerosol measurements in 1992 is in good agreement with the estimation provided by radiative transfer models. The analysis of the ozone seasonal variation shows that the ozone destruction starts in the beginning of August and affects essentially the inner vortex or inner edge regions.
