Mixing processes and exchanges in the tropical and the subtropical UT/LS [PDF]
Both in situ measurements and satellite observations indicate evidence of mixing in the upper troposphere (UT) and the lower-stratosphere (LS). In this study, the measurements performed during the Pre-AVE and Costa-Rica AVE campaigns are analysed with ...

Ice nucleation and cloud microphysical properties in tropical tropopause layer cirrus [PDF]
In past modeling studies, it has generally been assumed that the predominant mechanism for nucleation of ice in the uppermost troposphere is homogeneous freezing of aqueous aerosols.

Indications of thin cirrus clouds in the stratosphere at mid-latitudes [PDF]
This study is devoted to the possible presence of cirrus clouds in the stratosphere. Three months of lidar data collected in the south of France (44° N) for detection of stratospheric cirrus are carefully analyzed. Most of the cirrus clouds appear to

The observation of nitric acid-containing particles in the tropical lower stratosphere [PDF]
Airborne in situ measurements over the eastern Pacific Ocean in January 2004 have revealed a new category of nitric acid (HNO3)-containing particles in the tropical lower stratosphere.

Contribution of mixing to upward transport across the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) [PDF]
During the second part of the TROCCINOX campaign that took place in Brazil in early 2005, chemical species were measured on-board the high-altitude research aircraft Geophysica (ozone, water vapor, NO, NO<sub>y</sub>, CH<sub>4</sub ...
