dc.description.abstractWith the aim of understanding what drives the behavior of the stratospheric polar vortex in the Northern Hemisphere, we conduct a parameter sensitivity analysis on a simple model of stratospheric dynamics. This research will allow us to understand when and which parameters exert significant influence on the overall dynamics. Thus giving way to what potentially might drive the changes in the stratospheric polar vortex.
