Horizontal water vapor transport in the lower stratosphere from subtropics to high latitudes during boreal summer (2013, background): “This aspect may be of importance to the radiative formation of the summer inversion layer [e.g., Randel et al., 2007; Kunz et al., 2009] and requires further attention.”

Introduction to the SPARC Reanalysis Intercomparison Project (S-RIP) and overview of the reanalysis systems (2016, background): “Given the importance of water vapour in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) for radiative forcing (e.g. de Forster and Shine, 2002; Randel et al., 2007; Gettelmann et al., 2011; Riese et al., 2012), large biases in the representation of the water vapour gradients across the…”
