Brewer-Dobson circulation and Planetary Waves • Upwelling planetary waves break in shaded region • Drives the Brewer-Dobson circulation • Transports heat to the polar vortex • Effect on the strength of the polar night vortex Courtesy of M. Salby
2D CTM Model • The Caltech/JPL two-dimensional chemistry and transport model (2D CTM) is used to investigate interannual variability of the total ozone column. • Forced by the monthly mean meridional circulation (isentropic circulation) and eddy diffusivity calculated from the NCEP/DOE Reanalysis2 data (NCEP2). • Compared to the MOD observations.
Isentropic Mass Stream FunctionSeasonal Cycle derived from NCEP Units: 109 kg/s
Part II: TOMS and MOD data sets • TOMS: 1°×1.25° lat-lon grid, Nov.1978 - Apr.1993, monthly means • Merged Ozone Data (MOD) combines TOMS and SBUV data: 5°×10° lat-lon grid; Nov.1978 - Dec.2000, monthly means
MOD decomposition & PCA • data is deseasonalized: mean for each month removed • then detrended: linear trend removed. • Anomaly field is spectrally filtered to remove intra-annual variability. • Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is performed to get EOF patterns and PC time series.
MOD EOF patterns and PC time series Cumul. Var. Amplitude Spectra EOFs PCs 42% 75% 90% 93%
MOD EOF 1: QBO (and Decadal) <= 0 R=0.80 ( 1% ) Captures 42% of the interannual variance.
MOD EOF2: Decadal and QBO <= 0 R= -0.73 ( 5% ) Captures 33% of the interannual variance.

Linear Combinations of EOFs 1 & 2:Patterns for QBO and Decadal Signals • Using the standard deviations of the filtered PCs as weights, take weighted sum and difference of EOFs 1 & 2. (Zonal averages shown) diff => decadal EOF 1 EOF2 sum => QBO
EOF 3: interaction between QBO and annual cycles (QBO-annual beat) <= 0 Captures 15% of the interannual variance.
QBO-annual beat(analysis with intra-annual variability) • Quadratic nonlinearity between the QBO and annual cycles creates signals with periods of 20 and 8.6 months (for a average QBO period of 30 months):
EOF 4: ENSO <= 0 R=0.71 ( < 0.1% ) Captures 3% of the interannual variance.
ENSO in TOMS <= 0 R=0.76 ( 0.1% )
