Airborne observations of upper troposphere and lower stratosphere composition change in active convection producing above-anvil cirrus plumes

<p>Tropopause-overshooting convection in the midlatitudes provides a rapid transport pathway for air from the lower troposphere to reach the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) and can result in the formation of above-anvil cirrus plumes (AACPs) that significantly hydrate the strat...
