Investigation of chlorine radical chemistry in the Eyjafjallajkull volcanic plume using observed depletions in non-methane hydrocarbons [PDF]
As part of the effort to understand volcanic plume composition and chemistry during the eruption of the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajkull, the CARIBIC atmospheric observatory was deployed for three special science flights aboard a Lufthansa passenger ...

Lidar sounding of volcanic plumes [PDF]
ABSTRACT Accurate knowledge of gas composition in volcanic plumes has high scientific and societal value. On the one hand, it gives information on the geophysical processes taking place inside volcanos; on the other hand, it provides alert on possible eruptions. For this reasons, it has been suggested to monitor volcanic plumes by lidar. In particular,

The environmental impact of the Puyehue–Cordon Caulle 2011 volcanic eruption on Buenos Aires [PDF]
On 4 June 2011, the volcanic complex Puyehue–Cordon Caulle located in the Chilean Andes erupted, producing a plume of gases and particles that eventually circled the Southern Hemisphere, disrupting air travel and depositing ash in large quantities.

Long-range transport of volcanic aerosol from the 2010 Merapi tropical eruption to Antarctica [PDF]
Volcanic sulfate aerosol is an important source of sulfur for Antarctica, where other local sources of sulfur are rare. Midlatitude and high-latitude volcanic eruptions can directly influence the aerosol budget of the polar stratosphere.

ASHEE: a compressible, equilibrium-Eulerian model for volcanic ash plumes [PDF]
A new fluid-dynamic model is developed to numerically simulate the non-equilibrium dynamics of polydisperse gas-particle mixtures forming volcanic plumes. Starting from the three-dimensional N-phase Eulerian transport equations for a mixture of gases and

Sedimentation from strong volcanic plumes [PDF]
We develop descriptions of the key processes influencing tephra dispersal from strong volcanic plumes. These are characterized by the development of a subvertical eruption column in the atmosphere that forms a spreading current at a level of neutral buoyancy.
