• The Remarkably Strong Arctic Stratospheric Polar Vortex of Winter 2020: Links to Record‐Breaking Arctic Oscillation and Ozone Loss (2020, background): “The principal circulation feature of the polar wintertime stratosphere is the stratospheric polar vortex (hereinafter, the polar vortex), which consists of a strong westerly circulation spanning from roughly 100 to above 1 hPa (Waugh et al., 2017).”
• The Teleconnection of El Niño Southern Oscillation to the Stratosphere (2019, background): “The term polar vortex in this review always applies to the stratospheric polar vortex; for a disambiguation of the tropospheric and stratospheric polar vortices, see Waugh et al. (2017).”
