Calculation of Selected Atmospheric Composition Parameters for the Mid-Latitude, September Stratosphere.
Abstract
Because of the complexity and variability of the stratosphere, a computerized model approximating stratospheric behavior, in combining theory and actual measurements, is a powerful diagnostic tool, A model is very useful as an aid in developing both the general approach and the details of a field measurements program, and as an important tool in interpreting the experimental data of such a program. The interplay between measurements and model should produce the most effective approach to study of the stratosphere. This document contains a few examples of calculational results from the ASL Numerical Model of Atmospheric Radiation (ANMAR), Composition and Dynamics, paralleling the conditions of the recent set of STRATCOM VI experiments. They demonstrate the range of results obtainable and the detail of treatment possible using the modeling approach.
