An Explanation of the Poleward Mass Flux in the Stratosphere

Atmosphere
This paper offers a new perspective on the explanation of the poleward mass flux in the stratosphere. This mass flux represents the upper leg of the so-called Brewer–Dobson circulation. This new perspective is based on the following hypothesis.

Ozone Changes Due To Sudden Stratospheric Warming‐Induced Variations in the Intensity of Brewer‐Dobson Circulation: A Composite Analysis Using Observations and Chemical‐Transport Model

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
We quantify the changes in the intensity of Brewer‐Dobson Circulation (BDC) during sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) and its impact on the tropical stratospheric thermal structure and ozone distribution by composite analysis using observations and a ...

Modulation of Stratosphere‐to‐Troposphere Transport of Ozone by North Pacific Weather Patterns

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Stratosphere‐to‐troposphere transport (STT) of ozone is a major natural source of tropospheric ozone and is tightly linked to both stratospheric and tropospheric circulations. However, the complex interactions of drivers make it challenging to understand the subseasonal variability of STT.

Impact of Sudden Stratospheric Warmings on the Stratosphere-to-Troposphere Transport of Ozone

Geophysical Research Letters
not-yet-known not-yet-known not-yet-known unknown Sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) can significantly impact tropospheric weather systems. Previous studies suggest that SSWs may also influence stratosphere-to-troposphere transport (STT), but their spatial and temporal distribution and

Arctic sea ice decline, increasing successive sudden stratospheric warmings and cold northern hemisphere continents

Communications Earth & Environment
The frequency of successive sudden stratospheric warming events has markedly increased since 2000s. Using multimodel experiments it is demonstrated that reduced sea ice leads to higher frequencies of successive warming events.

Influence of stratospheric sudden warming on the tropical intraseasonal convection

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO), the dominant mode of intraseasonal variability in the tropical troposphere, has recently been shown to have a great impact on Northern Hemisphere (NH) extratropical stratosphere.

SuPerPoV: Score and Evolution of the Stratospheric Polar Vortex via Persistent Homology

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Classifying the stratospheric polar vortex provides predictability for surface weather on extended‐range timescales. However, all definitions of these events proposed in over 60 years of study depend on empirically chosen parameters and yield different results when they change.

Stratosphere–Troposphere Coupling During Cold Air Outbreaks in the Eastern United States

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Cold air outbreaks (CAOs) are extreme weather events characterized by the equatorward displacement of polar air. This study investigates CAOs occurring along the East Coast of the US and establishes that approximately 16% are driven by stratosphere‐troposphere coupling through wave dynamics.

Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 8, Page 514-524, August 2026.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

Overview of Aerosols in the E3SM Version 3: New Model Features and Their Impacts

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Accurate and comprehensive representation of aerosols in Earth system models (ESMs) is critical for modeling radiative forcing and seasonal‐to‐decadal variability. With increasing computing power, detailed physical and chemical processes representing aerosols and their interactions with other components of the Earth system can be treated more ...
