Lidar Observations of Polar Stratospheric Clouds and Stratospheric Temperatures at the South PolePolar stratospheric clouds (PSC's) play a crucial role in the ozone chemistry of the polar regions. Current chemical models rely on the presence of these clouds to explain the rapid destruction of ozone observed each spring in Antarctica. We present lidar observations of PCS's and stratospheric temperatures at the South Pole throughout the Antarctic winter and spring of 1990.
