Zusammenfassung |
Ozone measurements taken with a ground based microwave instrument at Lindau
(51.66° N, 10.13° E) over some years showed strong ozone
decrease events within the stratopause region, particularly during the
winter half-year. These events are characterized by a marked drop of the
ozone mixing ratio from two to three ppmv to less than half a ppmv in
extreme cases. Simultaneous water vapor measurements at the same place, also
carried out by a microwave instrument, showed a strong increase of its
mixing ratio and the temperature was also enhanced during these episodes.
The theoretical analysis brought evidence that these events result from a
positive feedback in the complex radiatively-chemical system between the
ozone column density and the ozone dissociation rate. |
