Medientyp: E-Artikel Titel: Antarctic ozone depletion and trends in tropopause Rossby wave breaking Beteiligte: Ndarana, T.; Waugh, D. W.; Polvani, L. M.; Correa, G. J. P.; Gerber, E. P. Erschienen: Wiley, 2012 Erschienen in: Atmospheric Science Letters, 13 (2012) 3, Seite 164-168 Sprache: Englisch DOI: 10.1002/asl.384 ISSN: 1530-261X Schlagwörter: Atmospheric Science Entstehung: Anmerkungen: Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Trends in summer tropopause Rossby wave breaking (RWB) are examined using meteorological reanalyses and model integrations. The reanalyses for the last 30 years show large increases in RWB on the equatorward side of the tropospheric jet and weak decreases on the poleward side. Comparable changes in RWB are found in general circulation model integrations whose stratospheric ozone differs between 1960 and 2000 levels, but not in integrations that differ only in their greenhouse gas concentrations and sea‐surface temperatures. These results indicate that the formation of the ozone hole has led to changes in RWB frequency during southern summer.
