Abstract: Our understanding of stratospheric trace constituent transport is reviewed,
beginning with the evolution of viewpoints on the subject over the past
half century. We then discuss the available observed characteristics of
trace constituents and the challenges posed by them.
To provide a framework for further developments, we present a simplified
conceptual view of processes leading to irreversible transport. Next, methods
of approach to such problems are outlined, including discussions of possibilities
for physically based parameterized transport models. Finally, we pose a
set of unanswered questions as possible guides to future research on the
subject.
