Scientific paper

Climatological features of the lower stratosphere over both polar regions are described. The frequency distributions of stratospheric temperature in the polar regions are analyzed. It is observed that the interannual variability of the Arctic stratospheric polar vortex is very large; there are frequent major midwinter warmings; a large amount of ozone-rich air is transported from the middle to the polar latitudes; and the stratospheric circulation is nonsymmetric; the opposite characteristics are detected for the Antarctic. The cooling in the Arctic and the increase in stratospheric aerosol load associated with the volcanic eruptions of Agung, Mount St. Helens, and El Chichon is examined. The intensification of the Antarctic polar vortex and the delay in the final warmings due to the volcanic eruptions are discussed. The relation between ozone content and 50-mbar height and temperature data is studied.
