Scientific paper

A parameterization of the mechanisms believed to be responsible for the quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO) in the zonal winds of the equatorial lower stratosphere has been added to a fully interactive dynamical radiative photochemical two-dimensional model of the atmosphere. In addition to a well-defined QBO in the zonal winds, temperature, and column ozone, the model exhibits a strong QBO signal in many of the other modeled trace gases. Large year-to-year variations, in some cases up to 70 percent, are predicted.
