The Effect of Forbush Decreases on the Polar-Night HOx Concentration Affecting Stratospheric Ozone

It is well-known that energetic particle precipitations during solar proton events increase ionization rates in the middle atmosphere enhancing the production of hydrogen oxide radicals (HOx) involved in the catalytic ozone destruction cycle. There are many studies where the contribution of energeti...
