Possible dynamical mechanisms for Southern Hemisphere climate change due to the ozone hole
Description: In this journal article researchers report a hypothesis for the dynamical mechanisms responsible for the strengthening of the Southern Hemisphere circumpolar winds from the lower stratosphere to the surface due to the ozone hole. A general circulation model forced by stratospheric ozone depletion representative of the ozone hole period successfully reproduced these observed changes.
