Vortex Preconditioning due to Planetary and Gravity Waves prior to Sudden Stratospheric Warmings (2014, background): “Because the lower-stratospheric portion of the vortex remains largely unchanged, the vortex becomes more vertically aligned in height (Harvey et al. 2002, their Fig.”
Numerical simulations of the three-dimensional distribution of meteoric dust in the mesosphere and upper stratosphere (2008, methodology): “[12] To study the vortex in more detail, the vortex identification technique of Harvey et al. [2002] is used to locate the vortex in the last year of the data.”
Energetic particle precipitation effects on the Southern Hemisphere stratosphere in 1992–2005 (2007, methodology): “The vortex edge on each day was defined in 1-km altitude increments by the algorithm of Harvey et al. [2002]. Because meteorological”
