Ozone impact from solar energetic particles cools the polar stratosphere

This work reveals a significant energetic particle precipitation (EPP) impact on ozone and stratospheric temperatures during late winter/spring and highlights the need for an improved representation of decadal EPP forcing in climate simulations.
