Abstract. This study documents several processes of stratosphere-troposphere transport (STT) in the subtropical region. A case study of the interaction between a Rossby Wave breaking over the Canary Islands and a subtropical vortex core situated further south is analysed with ozone airborne measurements (in-situ and Lidar). The investigation is conducted using a Reverse Domain Filling technique to reconstruct high-resolution potential vorticity fields with a Lagrangian approach and with simulations of a mesoscale model. Results show irreversible STT associated with tropopause folding, Rossby Wave Breaking and the filamentation of the subtropical vortex core.
