Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics
We investigate the influence of Middle Range Energy Electrons (MEE; typically 30-300 keV) precipitation on the atmosphere using the SOCOL3-MPIOM chemistry-climate model with coupled ocean. Model simulations cover the 2002-2010 period for which ionization rates from the AIMOS dataset and atmospheric composition observations from MIPAS are available. Results show that during geomagnetically active periods MEE significantly increase the amount of NOy and HOx in the polar winter mesosphere, in addition to other particles and sources, resulting in local ozone decreases of up to 35%. These changes are followed by an intensification of the polar night jet, as well as mesospheric warming and stratospheric cooling. The contribution of MEE also substantially enhances the difference in the ozone anomalies between geomagnetically active and quiet periods. Comparison with MIPAS NOy observations indicates that the additional source of NOy from MEE improves the model results, however substantial underestimation above 50 km remains and requires better treatment of the NOy source from the thermosphere. A surface air temperature response is detected in several regions, with the most pronounced warming occurring in the Antarctic during austral winter. Surface warming of up to 2 K is also seen over continental Asia during boreal winter.

Climate implications of the sun transition to higher activity mode
Egorova, Tatiana A.; Shapiro, Anna V.; Shapiro, Alexander I.; et al. (2023)
Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics
We analyze the ozone and climate response to the solar irradiance changes caused by the switch of the Sun to higher activity mode which is characterized by the simultaneous decrease of the total and increase of the UV solar irradiance. The results obtained using a chemistry-climate model with an interactive ocean show increase in the stratospheric ozone and temperature caused by higher levels of shortwave (100–380 nm) UV radiation. For the surface climate, the results are not so trivial because we obtained annual mean cooling for most of the globe, but at the same time, we do not observe expected statistically significant cooling over the northern high latitudes. This can be explained by the influence of the stratospheric ozone increase which can enhance the positive phase of the North Atlantic Oscillation bringing more energy to high latitudes. In general, a possible switch of the Sun to a more active state can lead to a slightly cooler climate and some decrease in the surface UV. However, these changes cannot be considered as catastrophic.
