Abstract Stratospheric sulfate aerosols from tropical volcanic eruptions alter surface air temperatures. Fundamentally, this is due to two different properties of the aerosols: Their ability to reflect incoming solar shortwave radiation, and their ability to absorb terrestrial longwave radiation.

Excitation of atmospheric oscillations by volcanic eruptions [PDF]
We investigated the mechanism of atmospheric oscillations with periods of about 300 s which were observed for the 1991 Pinatubo and the 1982 El Chichón eruptions.

A 30 m long sedimentary succession at the bottom of the Belize Blue Hole represents terrestrial cenote (12.5–7.2 ka BP), restricted marine swamp (7.2–5.7 ka BP) and fully marine lagoonal phases (5.7–0 ka BP) on Lighthouse Reef carbonate platform. Post‐glacial and Holocene sea‐level rise largely controlled the sedimentological, faunal and floral changes

Abstract The occurrence of sea surface temperature (SST) extremes may provoke profound impacts on ocean health. In the last decade, much effort has been dedicated to understanding and systematically describing marine heatwaves (MHWs) and cold spells (MCSs), defined as prolonged periods of anomalously warm or cold SSTs at a given location, respectively.

Eruption Column Modeling of Explosive Volcanism on Venus
Abstract Volcanism on Venus has never been directly observed, but several measurements indicate present‐day activity. Volcanism could potentially play a role in climatic processes on Venus, especially in the sulfur cycle like on Earth. Observation of volcanic activity is the primary objective of future Venus spacecraft. However, there are many unknowns

During one week (28 March-4 April 1982), three powerful explosive eruptions (VEI 5) of El Chichón Volcano caused the worst volcanic disaster in Mexico’s recorded history. Pyroclastic flows and surges obliterated nine villages, killing about 2,000 people,

Large explosive volcanic eruptions are capable of injecting considerable amounts of particles and sulfur gases above the tropopause, causing large increases in stratospheric aerosols. Five major volcanic eruptions after 1960 (i.e., Agung, St.

The Impact of Natural External Forcing on Ocean Heat Uptake Efficiency Since the 1980s
Abstract We investigate the temporal evolution of ocean heat uptake efficiency (OHUE) using observations and large ensemble model simulations. OHUE, defined as the ratio of ocean heat uptake rate to changes in global mean surface temperature anomalies, has exhibited significant variability over recent decades. We found a relatively low OHUE in the late

Enormous increase of volcanic clouds in the stratosphere over Fukuoka after April 1982
Mediante el sistema lidar Yag se observaron sobre Fukuoka (33°N) aumentos muy grandes de los aerosoles estratosféricos causados por la erupción del volcán mexicano El Chichón, a principios de abril de 1982.

Simulation and observations of stratospheric aerosols from the 2009 Sarychev volcanic eruption [PDF]
We used a general circulation model of Earth’s climate to conduct simulations of the 12-16 June 2009 eruption of Sarychev volcano (48.1°N, 153.2°E).
