Representing the effects of stratosphere–troposphere exchange on 3-D O<sub>3</sub> distributions in chemistry transport models using a potential vorticity-based parameterization
Downward transport of ozone (O<sub>3</sub>) from the stratosphere can be a significant contributor to tropospheric O<sub>3</sub> background levels. However, this process often is not well represented in current regional models. In this study, we develop a seasonally and s...
