Hydration and dehydration at the tropical tropopause

Hydration and dehydration at the tropical tropopause

High-resolution water measurements from three tropical airborne missions in Northern Australia, Southern Brazil and West Africa in different seasons are analysed to study the transport and transformation of water in the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) and its impact on the stratosphere. The mean pro...
