Abstract: Since 2004, following prolonged stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) events, it has been observed that the stratopause disappeared and reformed at a higher altitude, forming an elevated stratopause (... read more here.

Abstract: The mesospheric inversion layer (MIL) phenomenon is a temperature enhancement (10–50 K) in a vertical layer (∼10 km) lasting several days and spanning thousands of kilometers within the mesosphere. As MILs govern the mesospheric variability,… read more here.
