Temporary or permanent breakdown of the antarctic or arctic stratospheric vortex, in late winter or early spring, due to a rapid rise of temperature of the polar stratosphere(up to about 50 K in a few days).  3, record 1, English, - explosive%20warming

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Stratospheric warming(also called sudden warming) [means a] rise in temperature of the stratosphere in the polar region in late winter resulting from enhanced propagation of energy from the troposphere by planetary-scale waves.  4, record 1, English, - explosive%20warming

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT

As a result of a high balloon ascent the explosive warming of the stratosphere above 20 km height ("stratospheric warming") was discovered over Berlin in 1952.  5, record 1, English, - explosive%20warming

Westerly jet stream of maximum intensity near the stratopause, in the middle and subpolar latitudes of the winter hemisphere, caused by prolonged radiative cooling of the air in high latitudes during this season.  1, record 2, English, - polar%20night%20jet

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Polar-night jet stream. This jet meanders through the upper stratosphere over the poles. It occurs only during the long winter night. Remember, night is 6 months long over the pole in which winter is occurring. The polar stratosphere undergoes appreciable cooling due to the lack of solar radiation. The horizontal temperature gradient is strongly established between the equator and the pole, and the pressure gradient creates this westerly jet. The temperature gradient breaks down intermittently during middle and late winter in the Northern Hemisphere; therefore, the jet is intermittent at these times. In the Southern Hemisphere the temperature gradient and jet disappear rather abruptly near the time of the spring equinox.  3, record 2, English, - polar%20night%20jet

Corriente en chorro, del oeste, que alcanza su máxima intensidad cerca de la estratopausa en las latitudes medias y subpolares del hemisferio invernal.

The seasonal depletion of ozone in a large area of Antarctica.  3, record 3, English, - Antarctic%20ozone%20hole

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Antarctic ozone hole... The extremely cold temperatures within the polar vortex lead to formation of polar stratospheric clouds(PSCs) over large areas in early winter. These clouds are the key to the severe ozone depletion which has become known as the ozone "hole". PSCs form at the lower, colder altitudes(10-25 kilometres). The clouds are a major factor in causing large total column ozone depletion in the springtime Antarctic stratosphere.  4, record 3, English, - Antarctic%20ozone%20hole

Heterogeneous chemistry is, it seems, the key to understanding the preconditioning of the Antarctic stratosphere during the polar winter.
