Advances in Researches on the Characteristics of Multi-Scale Processes of Interactions between the Stratosphere and the Troposphere and Its Relations with Weather and Climate
平流层－对流层相互作用的多尺度过程特征及其与天气气候关系—研究进展

In the past five years,funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the Chinese Academy of Sciences,the investigations of the characteristics of the multi-scale processes and the relationship between the processes and weather and climate were conducted in the context regarding the interactions between atmospheric layers.This paper summaries the major results and the advancements in the key research aspects:1)sounding and analyzing the stratospheric ozone,2)estimating the mass exchange between the stratosphere and the troposphere(STME)and the features of the tropopause,3)investigating the characteristics of the multi-scale atmospheric waves in the middle atmosphere,and 4)developing new schemes for the calculation of radiative transfer and the retrieval of middle atmospheric parameters using satellite limb soundings.
