Vortex-wide chlorine activation by a mesoscale PSC event in the Arctic winter of 2009/10

Vortex-wide chlorine activation by a mesoscale PSC event in the Arctic winter of 2009/10

In the Arctic polar vortex of the 2009/10 winter temperatures were low enough to allow widespread formation of polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs). These clouds occurred during the initial chlorine activation phase which provided the opportunity to investigate the impact of PSCs on chlorine activat...
