Motivations• The unique chemical environment and
transport pathway created by deep convection over the western Pacific in N. winter
• Opportunity of coordinated flights to sample from the ocean surface to lower stratosphere

Models predict high levels of reactive halogens, low ozone and OH, with significant loss of O3 due to halogen cycles. CONTRAST will test these model predictions.

Opportunity of Coordinated Flights
![Page 14: Discussions of GV for ATTREX](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/568163fe550346895dd59cb1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
CONTRAST: Scientific Objectives
• Characterize the chemical composition and ozone photochemical budget at the level of convective outflow over the Western Pacific during the deep convective season
• Evaluate the budget of organic and inorganic bromine and iodine in the TTL
• Investigate transport pathways from the oceanic surface to the tropopause using the GV coordinated flights with BAe-146 and Global Hawk
![Page 15: Discussions of GV for ATTREX](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/568163fe550346895dd59cb1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
•The photochemical budget of O3 in the tropical TTL is determined by the strength of inputs of chemical precursors from convection and lightning.•The low O3 environment of air undergoing recent, deep convection will increase the atmospheric lifetime of halocarbons lost by reaction with OH.•CH2Br2, CHBr3, and other VSL bromocarbons will be elevated in air parcels that have undergone recent deep convection will remain elevated in the TTL•When CBry and CCIy species decompose, the resulting inorganic species remain as labile, gas phase species.•Coordinated aircraft measurements can quantify the relative importance of convective detrainment, deep convective injection, and lateral mixing for trace gas transport from the surface to the stratosphere, based on observations in the tropical TTL.

Flight Scenarios and Modules
1. Domain Survey – 2-3 flights + transit flight and part of other flights
2. Fresh convective outflow – main part of 2-3 flights
3. Lagrangian flight – 4 flights4. Photochemistry evolution (a) Dusk flight – 2
flights, (b) Dawn Flight – 1-2 flights5. Contrast flight – northern domain & jet crossing,
1 flight
