Arctic ozone depletion in 2002-2003 measured by ASUR and comparison with POAM observations

Abstract: International audienceWe present ozone loss estimated from airborne measurements in the Arctic winter 2003. The first half of the winter was characterized by unusually cold temperatures and the second half by a major stratospheric sudden warming that culminated around 15-18 January 2003. The potential vorticity maps show a vortex split in the lower stratosphere during the major warming (MW) period in late January and during the minor warming period in mid-February due to wave 1 amplification. The ozone depleti… Show more

“…Our analysis also shows that the wave 1 MWs (e.g. Kuttippurath et al, 2011;Kleinböhl et al, 2005;Manney et al, 2005;Liu et al, 2009) usually end up with vortex displacement events, while the wave 2 MWs (e.g. Harada et al, 2010;Manney et al, 2009) generally lead to vortex split events, consistent with the findings of previous studies (e.g.…”

“…Likewise, the MWs of /03, 2003/04, 2005/06, and 2008/09 were in January, (e.g. Cohen and Jones, 2011Kuttippurath et al, 2011;Kleinböhl et al, 2005) and consequently the ozone loss during the winters was also very small. The MWs of other winters were in February or March (e.g.…”

“…The larger Antarctic ozone column loss contribution from higher altitudes (above 550 K) is consistent with the loss estimated above these altitudes, as shown by the ozone profiles in this study for 2004-2013 and in Lemmen et al (2006) and Hoppel et al (2005) for a range of Antarctic winters prior to 2004. It is also evident from the maximum ozone loss altitudes, as most Antarctic winters have their peak loss altitudes around 525 K as opposed to 475 K in the Arctic (e.g., Kuttippurath et al, 2012;Tripathi et al, 2007;Grooß et al, 2005a;Rex et al, 2004).…”

“…We limit our study to the Northern Hemisphere (NH) lower stratosphere of February 2003 as it is well covered by both ozonesondes and satellite data. During this period, increased dynamic variability due to a minor warming event as well as significant chemical ozone depletion could be observed (e.g Kuttippurath, 2011…”
