Transport in the Middle Atmosphere (2007, background): “…followed by slow diabatic upwelling and photochemical production seems to account quite well for the observed vertical profile of ozone in the tropics (Folkins et al. 1999), which does not exhibit a sharp transition at the tropopause but rather increases gradually with altitude throughout the TTL.”
Definitions and sharpness of the extratropical tropopause: A trace gas perspective (2004, methodology): “[18] Building upon these recent analyses [Fischer et al., 2000; Hoor et al., 2002], we explore the use of tracer relationships in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) as a way of characterizing the transition between stratosphere and troposphere.”
Tropopause referenced ozone climatology and inter-annual variability (1994–2003) from the MOZAIC programme (2005, unknown): “Fischer et al. (2000) considered a mixing zone with a thickness of 2–3 km above the local tropopause.”
Horizontal water vapor transport in the lower stratosphere from subtropics to high latitudes during boreal summer (2013, background): “Within the lowermost part of the stratosphere, in the extratropical tropopause layer [Fischer et al., 2000; Hoor et al., 2002] extending within about 30 K distance of the extratropical local tropopause [Hoor et al., 2004; Hegglin et al., 2009], additional processes may play a role, involving…”
