Regional and seasonal stratospheric temperature trends in the last decade (2002–2014) from AMSU observations

Published in Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres

Stratospheric temperature trends for the period 2002-2014 have been estimated using NOAA's Integrated Microwave Inter-Calibration Approach (IMICA) version of AMSU on AQUA satellite. In this period the stratosphere continued cooling over most of the globe with a rate ranging from -0.4±0.3 to -0.5±0.4 K/decade above 25 km. Considering specific latitu...
