Effects of Mount Pinatubo volcanic eruption on the hydrological cycle as an analog of geoengineering
[1] The problem of global warming arises from the buildup of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide from burning of fossil fuels and other human activities that change the composition of the atmosphere and alter outgoing longwave radiation (OLR). One geoengineering solution being proposed is to reduce the incoming sunshine by emulating a volcanic eruption. In between the incoming solar radiati...
متن کاملRational volcanic hazard forecasts and the use of volcanic alert levels
Volcanologists make hazard forecasts in order to contribute to volcanic risk assessments and decision-making, in areas where volcanic phenomena have the potential to impact societal assets. Present-day forecasts related to the potential occurrence of an eruption mostly take the form of alert levels, that are established by volcano scientists with the aim of communicating the state of a volcano ...
متن کاملVolcanic signals in oceans
[1] Sulfate aerosols resulting from strong volcanic explosions last for 2–3 years in the lower stratosphere. Therefore it was traditionally believed that volcanic impacts produce mainly short-term, transient climate perturbations. However, the ocean integrates volcanic radiative cooling and responds over a wide range of time scales. The associated processes, especially ocean heat uptake, play a...
متن کاملResults of Long-Term Lidar Observation of Eruption Aerosol Formations in the Stratosphere Over Tomsk After the Mount Pinatubo Eruption
The investigations of scattering and absorbing characteristics of stratospheric aerosol layer after high-power volcanic eruptions make it possible to separate out and evaluate the influence of anomalous high aerosol concentrations on the radiation transfer in the atmosphere and the general radiation balance of the Earth. The violent eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in the Philippines in June 1991 injec...
متن کاملOperational eruption forecasting at high-risk volcanoes: the case of Campi Flegrei, Naples
High risk volcanic events are commonly preceded by long periods of unrest during which scientists are asked to provide near real-time forecasts. The rarity of such events, inaccessibility of the underground volcanic system, non-linear behaviors, and limited datasets constitute major sources of uncertainty. In order to provide reasoned guidance in the face of uncertainties, monitoring observatio...
