Dehydration at the tropical cold point tropopause primarily controls the entry value of water
vapor to the stratosphere, with additional (uncertain) contributions from subtropical …

The Asian monsoon anticyclone (AMA) represents one of the wettest regions in the lower
stratosphere (LS) and is a key contributor to the global annual maximum in LS water vapour …

The StratoClim stratospheric aircraft campaign took place in summer 2017 in Nepal (27 July–
10 August) and provided for the first time a wide dataset of observations of air composition …

Every year during the Asian summer monsoon season from about mid-June to early
September, a stable anticyclonic circulation system forms over the Himalayas. This Asian …

Efficient transport pathways for ozone-depleting very short-lived substances (VSLSs) from
their source regions into the stratosphere are a matter of current scientific debate; however …

Transport of pollutants into the stratosphere via the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) or North
American summer monsoon (NASM) may affect the atmospheric composition and climate …

This study investigates the projected changes in the upper troposphere and lower
stratosphere (UTLS) water vapor over the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) region based on …

Tropical tropopause layer (TTL) clouds have a significant impact on the Earth's radiative
budget and regulate the amount of water vapor entering the stratosphere. Estimating the …

The Asian monsoon (AM) plays a key role in the transport of water vapour to the lower
stratosphere and contributes significantly to the wet phase of the annual global stratospheric …

Water vapour in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) is a key radiative
agent and a crucial factor in the Earth's climate system. Here, we investigate a common …
