A 16-Year Climatology of Polar Stratospheric Clouds Based on CALIPSO Measurements (2006–2021) and Relationship with the Stratospheric Temperatures

A 16-year global climatology of polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) for the period 2006–2021 is produced, using satellite data products from the CALIOP lidar. The original Level 2 data (at 5 km horizontal and 180 m vertical resolution, from 8.5 to 30 km) were re-gridded at 1° × 1° latitude-longitude,...
