Description
This upload covers scripts, intermediate data, and figures associated with the paper "Comparison of Arctic and Antarctic stratospheric
climates in chemistry versus no-chemistry climate models" by O. Morgenstern et al., submitted to the Journal of Geophysical Research -- Atmospheres. Please download and use gunzip and tar -xvf to unpack the submission.
It contains the following scripts (all IDL):
analyze_day_ta_zg.pro: Produces the daily composites of temperature and geopotential height anomalies and saves the results in .txt files.
display_arctic_ozone2.pro: Produces the total-column ozone representations (figures 1 and 3).
display_coldestday.pro: Produces the date and variance of the coldest day (figure 7).
display_composites.pro: Displays the composites (figures 8 and 9).
display_density.pro: Displays the temperature anomaly density plots (figures 5 and 6).
display_ozone_loss_allinone.pro: Produces the March and October polar ozone plot (figure 2)
display_temp_anomaly.pro: Displays temperature at the coldest point in daily profiles (figure 10).
display_T_stdev: Displays the temperature bias and standard deviation (figure 4).
Files named *_tdensity.txt contain tabulated probability densities as functions of the day of year that the temperature at 70 hPa over the poles is of a given amplitude.
polar_cap_ozone.txt contains polar-cap mean, monthly-mean total-column ozone for the period 1979-2014.
result_composite.txt contains the composite temperature information displayed in figures 8 and 9.
cold_period_stats.txt contains the information displayed in figure 10.
