UTas01: Understanding polar stratospheric cloud interactions

July 20, 2019 1:00 am Published by Comments Off on UTas01: Understanding polar stratospheric cloud interactions

In this project, you will use unique data collected during the Antarctic winter to understand the interactions between PSCs, the tropopause, and very cold cirrus clouds which are present in the upper troposphere. You will also determine how small-scale changes in stratospheric winds influence the occurrence, composition and brightness of PSCs.
