abstract = {On a research flight on 10 July 2008, the German research
aircraft Falcon sampled an air mass with unusually high
carbon monoxide (CO), peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) and water
vapour (H2O) mixing ratios in the Arctic lowermost
stratosphere. The air mass was encountered twice at an
altitude of 11.3 km, ~800 m above the dynamical tropopause.
In-situ measurements of ozone, NO, and NOy indicate that
this layer was a mixed air mass containing both air from the
troposphere and stratosphere. Backward trajectory and
Lagrangian particle dispersion model analysis suggest that
the Falcon sampled the top of a polluted air mass
originating from the coastal regions of East Asia. The
anthropogenic pollution plume experienced strong up-lift in
a warm conveyor belt (WCB) located over the Russian
east-coast. Subsequently the Asian air mass was transported
across the North Pole into the sampling area, elevating the
local tropopause by up to ~3 km. Mixing with surrounding
Arctic stratospheric air most likely took place during the
horizontal transport when the tropospheric streamer was
stretched into long and narrow filaments. The mechanism
illustrated in this study possibly presents an important
pathway to transport pollution into the polar tropopause
region.},
