Abstract
⺠Ozone enhancement over upper troposphere equatorial Africa is investigated. ⺠Planetary waves are responsible for ozone enhancements over equatorial Africa. ⺠The MTM-SVD method reveals how planetary waves modulate stratospheric PV intrusion. ⺠Coupling of PV intrusion and deep convection during ozone enhancement is confirmed. ⺠PV and wind anomalies during a particular cycle of the wave govern ozone variation.
