Cargese UTLS ozone and ozone trends 2 Importance UTLS relatively large (but variable) ozone trends very high climate sensitivity crucial region modulating stratospheric entry of tropospheric pollutants growing commercial aviation

Cargese UTLS ozone and ozone trends 3 Problems UTLS studies very complex region (dynamics and chemistry on a variety of scales) high demands on modeling capabilities limited amount of satellite observations with large uncertainties: rely on in-situ measurements

Cargese UTLS ozone and ozone trends 4 UTLS: combination of mixing and chemistry
