Effects of Solar Proton Events of January 2005 on Intensity of the Stratospheric Polar Vortex

Abstract

A study of changes in the circulation of the high-latitude stratosphere associated with solar proton events of January 2005 was carried out. A sharp increase in intensity of the stratospheric polar vortex was revealed during the events under study. A possible factor of the vortex intensification could be variations in ionization rate that influence the chemical composition and thus the temperature regime of the polar stratosphere.
