  SEAM is the Spectral Element Atmospheric Model.
       
       
  MM5 Cyclone   Polar Vortex Breakdown
In early winter, cold temperatures result in the formation of a strong circumpolar flow in the stratosphere, known as the Polar Night Vortex, producing favorable conditions for ozone depletion.
       
       
    Polar Vortex High Resolution Simulation
This new simulation of the stratospheric polar night vortex breakdown was computed at a significantly higher resolution than the previous one (two to four times the horizontal and vertical resolution).
