Dynamics, stratospheric ozone, and climate change (2008, background): “The stratosphere is close to being in global-mean radiative equilibrium (e.g., Fomichev et al., 2002), since dynamical effects on temperature cancel out in the global mean — roughly, adiabatic warming in one location must be cancelled by adiabatic cooling somewhere else, by mass conservation — and…”
