abstract = {[1] The three-dimensional (3-D) formulation of the Chemical
Lagrangian Model of the Stratosphere (CLaMS-3d) is presented
that extends the isentropic version of CLaMS to
cross-isentropic transport. The cross-isentropic velocities
of the Lagrangian air parcels are calculated with a
radiation module and by taking into account profiles of
ozone and water vapor derived from a HALOE climatology. The
3-D extension of mixing maintains the most important feature
of the 2-D version as mixing is mainly controlled by the
horizontal deformations of the wind fields. In the 3-D
version, mixing is additionally driven by the vertical shear
in the flow. The impact of the intensity of mixing in the
3-D model formulation on simulated tracer distributions is
elucidated by comparing observations of CH4, Halon-1211, and
ozone from satellite, balloon, and ER-2 aircraft during the
SOLVE/ THESEO-2000 campaign. CLaMS-3d simulations span the
time period from early December 1999 to the middle of March
2000, with air parcels extending over the Northern
Hemisphere in the vertical range between 350 and 1400 K. The
adjustment of the CLaMS-3d mixing parameters to optimize
agreement with observations was obtained for strongly
inhomogeneous, deformation-induced mixing that affects only
about $10\%$ of the air parcels per day. The optimal choice
of the aspect ratio a defining the ratio of the mean
horizontal and vertical separation between the air parcels
was determined to be 250 for model configuration with a
horizontal resolution r(0) = 100 km. By transporting ozone
in CLaMS-3d as a passive tracer, the chemical ozone loss was
inferred as the difference between the observed and
simulated ozone profiles. The results show, in agreement
with previous studies, a substantial ozone loss between 380
and 520 K with a maximum loss at 460 K of about 1.9 ppmv,
i.e., of over $60\%$ locally, from December to the middle of
March 2000. During this period, the impact of isentropic
mixing across the vortex edge outweighs the effect of the
spatially inhomogeneous ( differential) descent on the
tracer/ ozone correlations in the vortex. Mixing into the
vortex shifts the early winter reference tracer/ ozone
correlation to higher values, which may lead to an
underestimate of chemical ozone loss, on average by 0.4 and
0.1 ppmv in the entire vortex and the vortex core,
respectively.},
