A new two-dimensional model of the stratosphere and the mesosphere was formulated in transformed Eulerian coordinates, in which dynamics, radiation, and chemistry are treated interactively. The model includes a detailed radiative scheme which derives the diabatic heating rates consistently with calculated distributions of temperature and trace species densities. Results are presented on the present-day and perturbed atmosphere, showing that the calculated distributions of source gases, such as nitrous oxide and methane, are very sensitive to the calculated (and parameterized) dynamical quantities, and that species produced in the atmosphere, like carbon monoxide and odd nitrogen, can provide valuable information on the role of atmospheric transport.
