| Zusammenfassung |
| We present recent advances in the development of a microphysical/transport model
for stratospheric aerosols, called MOdel for STRatospheric Aerosols (MOSTRA).
MOSTRA is a 3D model describing the evolution in time and space of the stratospheric
aerosol distribution described using a set of discrete size bins. The microphysical
module used in this model makes use of the PSCBOX model developed by Larsen (2000).
The transport module is based on the flux-form semi-Lagragian scheme by Lin and Rood
(1996).
The model structure will be presented with simulations of the evolution of the
volcanic aerosol plume after recent volcanic eruptions.
