abstract = {The 3D version of the Chemical Lagrangian Model of the
Stratosphere (CLAMS) is used to study the transport of CH4
and 03 in the Antarctic stratosphere between I September and
30 November 2002, that is, over the time period when
unprecedented major stratospheric warming in late September
split the polar vortex into two parts. The isentropic and
cross-isentropic velocities in CLAMS are derived from ECMWF
winds and heating/cooling rates calculated with a radiation
module. The irreversible part of transport, that is, mixing,
is driven by the local horizontal strain and vertical shear
rates with mixing parameters deduced from in situ
observations.The CH4 distribution after the vortex split
shows a completely different behavior above and below 600 K.
Above this potential temperature level, until the beginning
of November, a significant part of vortex air is transported
into the midlatitudes up to 40 degrees S. The lifetime of
the vortex remnants formed after the vortex split decreases
with the altitude with values of about 3 and 6 weeks at 900
and 700 K, respectively.Despite this enormous dynamical
disturbance of the vortex, the intact part between 400 and
600 K that "survived" the major warming was strongly
isolated from the extravortex air until the end of November.
According to CLAMS simulations, the air masses within this
part of the vortex did not experience any significant
dilution with the midlatitude air.By transporting ozone in
CLAMS as a passive tracer, the chemical ozone loss was
estimated from the difference between the observed [Polar
Ozone and Aerosol Measurement III (POAM 111) and Halogen
Occultation Experiment (HALOE)] and simulated ozone
profiles. Starting from I September, up to 2.0 ppmv O-3
around 480 K and about 70 Dobson units between 450 and 550 K
were destroyed until the vortex was split. After the major
warming, no additional ozone loss can be derived, but in the
intact vortex part between 450 and 550 K, the accumulated
ozone loss was "frozen in" until the end of November.},
