abstract = {The Asian summer monsoon (ASM) anticyclone is the most
pronounced circulation pattern in the upper troposphere and
lower stratosphere (UTLS) during northern hemispheric
summer. ASM convection plays an important role in efficient
vertical transport from the surface to the upper-level
anticyclone. In this paper we investigate the potential
impact of enhanced anthropogenic nitrogen oxide (NOx)
emissions on the distribution of ozone in the UTLS using the
fully coupled aerosol–chemistry–climate model,
ECHAM5-HAMMOZ. Ozone in the UTLS is influenced both by the
convective uplift of ozone precursors and by the uplift of
enhanced-NOx-induced tropospheric ozone anomalies. We
performed anthropogenic NOx emission sensitivity experiments
over India and China. In these simulations, covering the
years 2000–2010, anthropogenic NOx emissions have been
increased by $38 \%$ over India and by $73 \%$ over
China with respect to the emission base year 2000. These
emission increases are comparable to the observed linear
trends of $3.8 \%$ per year over India and $7.3 \%$ per
year over China during the period 2000 to 2010. Enhanced NOx
emissions over India by $38 \%$ and China by $73 \%$
increase the ozone radiative forcing in the ASM anticyclone
(15–40° N, 60–120° E) by 16.3 and
78.5 mW m−2 respectively. These elevated NOx emissions
produce significant warming over the Tibetan Plateau and
increase precipitation over India due to a strengthening of
the monsoon Hadley circulation. However, increase in NOx
emissions over India by $73 \%$ (similar to the observed
increase over China) results in large ozone production over
the Indo-Gangetic Plain and Tibetan Plateau. The higher
ozone concentrations, in turn, induce a reversed monsoon
Hadley circulation and negative precipitation anomalies over
India. The associated subsidence suppresses vertical
transport of NOx and ozone into the ASM anticyclone.},
