On the Role of Climate Forcing by Volcanic Sulphate and Volcanic Ash [PDF]
There is overall agreement that volcanic sulphate aerosols in the stratosphere can reduce solar radiation reaching the earth’s surface for years, thereby reducing surface temperatures, affecting global circulation patterns and generally the global climate system.

Radiative Forcing From the 2014–2022 Volcanic and Wildfire Injections
Volcanic and wildfire events between 2014 and 2022 injected ∼3.2 Tg of sulfur dioxide and 0.8 Tg of smoke aerosols into the stratosphere. With injections at higher altitudes and lower latitudes, the simulated stratospheric lifetime of the 2014–2022 ...

Volcanic Radiative Forcing From 1979 to 2015 [PDF]
AbstractUsing volcanic sulfur dioxide emissions in an aerosol‐climate model, we derive a time series of global‐mean volcanic effective radiative forcing (ERF) from 1979 to 2015. For 2005–2015, we calculate a global multiannual mean volcanic ERF of −0.08 W/m2 relative to the volcanically quiescent 1999–2002 period, due to a high frequency of small‐to ...

The Arctic Polar Vortex Response to Volcanic Forcing of Different Strengths [PDF]
AbstractTropical volcanic eruptions injecting sulfur into the stratosphere are assumed to not only scatter radiation and cool Earth's surface but also alter atmospheric circulation and in particular to strengthen the stratospheric polar vortex in boreal winter.

Impact of solar versus volcanic activity variations on tropospheric temperatures and precipitation during the Dalton Minimum [PDF]
The aim of this work is to elucidate the impact of changes in solar irradiance and energetic particles versus volcanic eruptions on tropospheric global climate during the Dalton Minimum (DM, AD 1780–1840).

Investigation of weather anomalies in the low-latitude islands of the Indian Ocean in 1991 [PDF]
Temperature, precipitation and sunshine duration measurements at meteorological stations across the southern Indian Ocean have been analysed to try to differentiate the possible influence of the Mount Pinatubo volcanic eruption in the Philippines in ...

The sensitivity of EC-Earth3 decadal predictions to the choice of volcanic forcing dataset: insights for the next major eruption [PDF]
Large volcanic eruptions can have significant impacts on climate. Due to their unpredictable nature, when a major volcanic eruption occurs, decadal forecasts issued prior to the eruption will be inaccurate.

Imprints of climate forcings in global gridded temperature data [PDF]
Monthly near-surface temperature anomalies from several gridded data sets (GISTEMP, Berkeley Earth, MLOST, HadCRUT4, 20th Century Reanalysis) were investigated and compared with regard to the presence of components attributable to external climate ...

Statistical framework for evaluation of climate model simulations by use of climate proxy data from the last millennium – Part 3: Practical considerations, relaxed assumptions, and using tree-ring data to address the amplitude of solar forcing [PDF]
A statistical framework for evaluation of climate model simulations by comparison with climate observations from instrumental and proxy data (part 1 in this series) is improved by the relaxation of two assumptions.
