The influlence of polar heterogeneous processes on reactive chlorine at middle latitudes: Three dimensional model implications

摘要: Three dimensional model calculations with the NASA/GSFC chemistry and transport have been designed to consider impact of heterogeneous processes occurring on polar stratospheric clouds (PSC's) in Arctic vortex HCl distribution. By examining concentration for a calculation PSC's relative gas phase only, authors infer processing reactive chlorine species at middle latitudes. Results from reproduce basic features ClO measurements (Toohey et al., 1991), which were made ferry flights ER-2 Stavanger, Norway Moffett Field, California via Wallops Island, Virginia February 20 21, 1989.
