Abstract. Although the global methane (CH4) concentration has more than doubled since pre-industrial times, local emission sources are still poorly identified and quantified. Instruments onboard satellites can improve our knowledge about distribution owing to their very good spatial coverage.

Recent theories of solid polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) formation have shown that particles could remain liquid down to 3 K or 4 below the ice frost point. Such temperatures are rarely reached in Arctic stratosphere at synoptic scale, but nevertheless, PSCs frequently observed. Mesoscale processes such as mountain‐induced gravity waves be responsible for their formation. In this paper, a microphysical‐chemical Lagrangian model (MiPLaSMO) and mountain wave (NRL/MWFM) used interpret...
