Modeling the atmospheric response to solar irradiance changes using a GCM with a realistic QBO

The impact of solar irradiance changes on the winter polar stratosphere is investigated using a general circulation model in which the equatorial Quasi-Biennial Oscillation (QBO) is internally generated and self-sustaining. The model results compare favorably with observations, supporting previous f...
