The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts'(ECMWF's) next-generation
reanalysis ERA5 provides many improvements, but it also confronts the community with a …

In June 2019 a stratospheric eruption occurred at Raikoke (48∘ N, 153∘ E). Satellite
observations show the injection of ash and SO 2 into the lower stratosphere and an early …

We have performed backward trajectory calculations and simulations with the three-
dimensional Chemical Lagrangian Model of the Stratosphere (CLaMS) for two succeeding …

During the Asian monsoon season, greenhouse gases and pollution emitted near the
ground are rapidly uplifted by convection up to an altitude of∼ 13 km, with slower ascent …

Pollution transport from the surface to the stratosphere within the Asian monsoon circulation
may cause harmful effects on stratospheric chemistry and climate. Here, we investigate air …

This paper investigates the global stratospheric Brewer–Dobson circulation (BDC) in the
ERA5 meteorological reanalysis from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather …

Monitoring and modeling of volcanic plumes are important for understanding the impact of
volcanic activity on climate and for practical concerns, such as aviation safety or public …

Abstract The South Asian summer monsoon is associated with a large-scale anticyclonic
circulation in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS), which confines the air …

The Asian tropopause aerosol layer (ATAL) is present during the Asian summer monsoon
season affecting the radiative balance of the atmosphere. However, the source regions and …

The Asian summer monsoon provides an important pathway of tropospheric source gases
and pollution into the lower stratosphere. This transport is characterized by deep convection …
