abstract = {In a case study of a remarkable major sudden stratospheric
warming (SSW) during the boreal winter 2008/09, we
investigate how transport and mixing triggered by this event
affected the composition of the entire stratosphere in the
Northern Hemisphere. We simulate this event with the
Chemical Lagrangian Model of the Stratosphere (CLaMS), both
with optimized mixing parameters and with no mixing, i.e.
with transport occurring only along the Lagrangian
trajectories. The results are investigated by using
tracer–tracer correlations and by applying the transformed
Eulerian-mean formalism. The CLaMS simulation of N2O and O3,
and in particular of the O3–N2O tracer correlations with
optimized mixing parameters, shows good agreement with the
Aura Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) data. The spatial
distribution of mixing intensity in CLaMS correlates fairly
well with the Eliassen–Palm flux convergence. This
correlation illustrates how planetary waves drive mixing. By
comparing simulations with and without mixing, we find that
after the SSW, poleward transport of air increases, not only
across the vortex edge but also across the subtropical
transport barrier. Moreover, the SSW event, at the same
time, accelerates polar descent and tropical ascent of the
Brewer–Dobson circulation. The accelerated ascent in the
tropics and descent at high latitudes first occurs in the
upper stratosphere and then propagates downward to the lower
stratosphere. This downward propagation takes over 1 month
from the potential temperature level of 1000 to 400 K.},
