abstract = {[1] Mixing of stratospheric and tropospheric air plays an
essential role in the stratosphere-troposphere exchange
(STE) of chemical species. Although evidence of mixing is
frequently observed, quantifying its effect has been a
significant challenge. We present an analysis using both
observations and modeling tools to address the issues of
where mixing occurs and how models can quantify its effect
to STE across the extratropical tropopause. The data are
from remote and in situ measurements on board the NASA DC-8
during the Subsonic Assessment: Ozone and Nitrogen Oxides
Experiment (SONEX). The model simulations use the Chemical
Lagrangian Model of the Stratosphere (CLaMS). Our analyses
use tracer correlations together with lidar measurements of
ozone cross sections to characterize the spatial extent of
the observed mixing. The results also serve to identify the
air mass that is involved in an irreversible exchange.
Results of the CLaMS simulations of lidar and in situ
observations for a case observed on 29 October 1997
demonstrate the model's ability to characterize mixing near
the tropopause. The results also indicate that using the
shear and deformation in large-scale winds, we can reproduce
the observed mixing and the overall features of the
stratospheric intrusion. An artificial tracer is used to
quantify the transport between the stratosphere and
troposphere, to track the preferred location and the
cumulative effect of mixing. These results demonstrate
progress toward modeling mixing and STE using Lagrangian
models and show the potential of the CLaMS model in
quantifying the effect of mixing on the chemical composition
of the upper tropospheric and lower stratospheric region.},
