Sensitivity of age of air trends to the derivation method for non-linear increasing inert SF<sub>6</sub>

<p>Mean age of air (AoA) is a diagnostic of transport along the stratospheric Brewer–Dobson circulation. While models consistently show negative trends, long-term time series (1975–2016) of AoA derived from observations show non-significant positive trends in mean AoA in the Northern Hemispher...
