Callis, L.B., Baker, D.N., Natarajan, M., Bernard, J.B., Mewaldt, R.A., Selesnick, R.S. and Cummings, J.R. (1996). A 2-D model simulation of downward transport of NO_y into the stratosphere: Effects on the 1994 austral spring O₃and NO_y. Geophysical Research Letters 23: doi: 10.1029/96GL01788. issn: 0094-8276.

Simulations using SAMPEX and HALOE data suggest that NOy produced by thermospheric processes and by relativistic electron precipitation in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere have been important to stratospheric NOy and O3 during the austral spring in 1994. The relative importance of the two NOy sources is discussed. The results are supported by an analysis of HALOE NOx and CH4 data during October 1994 and are in agreement with ATMOS NOy observations made in November 1994. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1996
