TL;DR: The Earth Observing System Microwave Limb Sounder measures several atmospheric chemical species to improve the authors' understanding of stratospheric ozone chemistry, the interaction of composition and climate, and pollution in the upper troposphere.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that chemical ozone destruction over the Arctic in early 2011 was—for the first time in the observational record—comparable to that in the Antarctic ozone hole.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the retrievals algorithm used to determine temperature and height from radiance measurements by the Microwave Limb Sounder on EOS Aura, which is a "limbscanning" instrument, meaning that it views the atmosphere along paths that do not intersect the surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aura Microwave Limb Sounder Observations of Dynamics and Transport During the Record-Breaking 2009 Arctic Stratospheric Major Warming
Gloria L. Manney,Gloria L. Manney,Michael J. Schwartz,Kirstin Krüger,Michelle L. Santee,Steven Pawson,Jae N. Lee,William H. Daffer,R. A. Fuller,Nathaniel J. Livesey +9 more
TL;DR: A major stratospheric sudden warming (SSW) in January 2009 was the strongest and most prolonged on record as discussed by the authors, and the 2009 SSW had a more profound impact on the lower stratosphere than any previously observed SSW, with no significant recovery of the vortex in that region.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Earth Observing System (EOS) Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) aboard the Aura satellite has provided essentially daily global measurements of ozone (O3) profiles from the upper troposphere to the upper mesosphere since August of 2004.
