Abstract: We have examined an idealized, zonally averaged, nonlinear, ageostrophic circulation forced by differential heating and parameterized eddy mixing for a range of mixing values and boundary conditions. Using a simple ƒ-plane ...

Abstract: The observed zonally averaged column ozone shows a maximum at 90°N during the northern winter and spring and at 60°S throughout the southern winter and spring. This asymmetry is explained in the context of a zonally averaged ...

Abstract: The effect of eddy diffusion in an interactive two-dimensional model of the stratosphere is reexamined. The model consists of a primitive equation dynamics module, a simplified HOx ozone model and a full radiative transfer ...

Abstract: In order to study the potential climatic effects of the ozone hole more directly and to assess the validity of previous lower resolution model results, the latest high spatial resolution version of the Atmospheric and ...
