Observations of ozone-poor air in the tropical tropopause layer
Ozonesondes reaching the tropical tropopause layer (TTL) over the west Pacific have occasionally measured layers of very low ozone concentrations - less than 15â¯ppbv - raising...- publication PDF

Partially ejected flux ropes: Implications for interplanetary coronal mass ejections
Connecting interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) to their solar pre-eruption source requires a clear understanding of how that source may have evolved during eruption....- publication PDF
