Measurements of atmospheric N2O spanning altitudes from the surface to 14 km, and latitudes from 67°S to 85°N, show high concentrations in the tropics and subtropics, with strong maxima in the middle and upper troposphere. The pattern varies significantly over time scales of a few weeks. Global simulations do not accurately capture observed distrib...
