Relationships between Brewer-Dobson circulation, double tropopauses, ozone and stratospheric water vapour

Statistical relationships between the variability of the area covered by double tropopause events (DTs), the strength of the tropical upwelling, the total column ozone and of the lower stratospheric water vapour are analyzed. The QBO and ENSO signals in the double tropopause and tropical upwelling a...
