Short summary
This study examines how the turbulence in the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere (UTLS) could modify the tracer distribution under different situations. Using a multi-scale chemistry model with a novel diagnostic, we found that both the pre-existing tracer gradient and the dynamical and thermodynamical forcing play a role in modifying the tracer distribution. These results allow further research on the UTLS turbulent mixing and its implications for the climate system.
