Influence of Volcanic Activity on Weather and Climate Changes ()
ABSTRACT
This paper examines possible connections between
volcanic eruptions and their consequences on the weather. Gas emissions, such
as CO2 and SO2, are vital in the troposphere and change temperatures on Earth’s surface.
The water vapor discharges can be moved for three atmospheric layers creating
extra atmospheric rivers and disrupting the Polar vortex. All those deviations
will bring consequences to the weather. It depends on the intensity, the
emission type, the kind of volcano, and the location. Then, eruptions can
change the atmospheric layers with sudden fluctuations unexpected for the
season.
