Variability in the speed of the Brewer–Dobson circulation as observed by Aura/MLS

We use Aura/MLS stratospheric water vapour (H<sub>2</sub>O) measurements as tracer for dynamics and infer interannual variations in the speed of the Brewer–Dobson circulation (BDC) from 2004 to 2011. We correlate one-year time series of H<sub>2</sub>O in the lower stratospher...
