ACE-FTS water vapour trends in the stratosphere-mesosphere
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment – Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE-FTS) is a high spectral resolution (0.02 cm-1) spectrometer on the SciSat satellite that has been taking solar occultation measurements of the Earth’s limb since February 2004. ACE-FTS measures vertical profiles of temperature/pressure and concentrations of over 60 trace gases, including ozone and water vapour, with a vertical resolution of ~2-6 km. From the beginning of the mission, ACE-FTS water vapour data exhibits a significant positive trend on the order of a few percent per decade throughout the stratosphere and mesosphere, in agreement with similar measurements from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) and the Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) instruments. This study will investigate the link between ACE-FTS water vapour trends and decadal variations in other atmospheric parameters, including local and tropopause temperatures, ozone and methane concentrations, and solar flux, and will discuss how ACE-FTS measurements of HDO can be used to continue measuring background water vapour trends post-eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano, which injected ~160 Tg of water vapour (more than 10% of the stratospheric water vapour budget) into the stratosphere.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
