Volcanism and Climate: A Comparison of the Mt. Pinatubo and El Chichon Events
M. J. Post
Conclusion
Multi-year, multi-wavelength lidar studies of two major volcanic
events reveal details of buildup and decay that are important for
proper climatic modeling of
such events. Over the United States, build-up from these two tropical
volcanoes appears to be similar but decay is dissimilar. Simultaeously,
both the troposphere and the stratosphere are affected by such eruptions, a
heretofore unknown result.
