Mountain wave-induced variations of ozone and total nitrogen dioxide contents over the Subpolar Urals

摘要

Wavy spatial variations in the contents of trace gases are identified using plane measurements of O-3 concentrations in the medium troposphere and the total content (TC) of NO2 in the atmospheric column from flights above the Subpolar Urals in April 1984. The results of model calculations allow us to relate these variations to mesoscale atmospheric disturbances above the mountains, which are caused by the influence of dynamic relief on the leaked-in flow.
