Formation of a mesospheric inversion layer and the subsequent elevated stratopause associated with the major stratospheric sudden warming in 2018/19
Since 2004, following prolonged stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) events, it has been
observed that the stratopause disappeared and reformed at a higher altitude, forming an …
