Sulphur emissions to the stratosphere from explosive volcanic eruptions

Abstract:: Two methods were used to quantify the flux of volcanic sulphur (as the equivalent mass of SO2) to the stratosphere over different timescales during the Holocene. A combination of satellite-based measurements of sulphur yields from recent explosive volcanic eruptions with an appropriate rate of explosive volcanism for the past 200 years constrains the medium-term (≃102 years) flux of volcanic sulphur to the stratosphere to be ≃ 1 Mt a-1, with lower and upper bounds of 0.3 and 3 Mt a-1. The sho...
