What natural event can block solar radiation and have a short-term effect on climate?
The transit of the Moon between the Earth and the Sun, an event called a solar eclipse, will block solar radiation, but will not affect the climate.A natural event that will block solar radiation and have a short-term cooling effect on the climate (by reflecting the sun's heat) is a volcanic eruption. Clouds of dust and ash can float around the world for some days causing a cooling effect.
An eruption on the suns surface is a solar what?
Protuberance or Solar Flare.
How does volcanic ash affect global warming?
Volcanoes can cause a slight warming effect because of their carbon dioxide emissions, and a somewhat greater, but short-term, cooling effect due to particulate emissions. Apart from the short-term cooling effect, volcanoes are not considered to have a significant effect on temperatures, compared to the effect from human activities.
How do you think particulates in the atmosphere might affect the earth temperature?
Particulates in the atmosphere reflect solar radiation and prevent it reaching the earth. This has the effect of lowering the temperature of the earth. This happened seriously in the mid-20th Century, but was stopped by Clean Air Acts round the world. It also happens for a few days after a volcanic eruption.
Is it possible for Jupiter's moon IO to have habitability?
No. Io is subject to intense volcanic activity and is bombarded by radiation funneled by Jupiter's magnetic field, making it one of the least hospitable worlds in the solar system.
Where in the Solar System does volcanic activity take place?
Mercury
What are the three places in the solar system does volcanic activity take place?
io, venus and earth
What planets show evidence of heavy volcanic activity?
Mercury had volcanic activity but it appears to be dormant nowVenus had volcanic activity but it appears to be dormant nowEarth still has active volcanoesMars had volcanic activity but it appears to be dormant nowIo - a moon of Jupiter is the most volcanically active object in our Solar System with over 400 active volcanoes.
Why are some rocks younger then the formation of the solar system?
Some rocks are younger then the formation of the solar system because of changes caused by volcanic activity
Which human activity doea not affect the earth system?
The only activity that does not affect the earth's system is Converting Solar Energy. This is healthy for the earth.
How solar activity affect global warming?
sets people on fire.
Does Mars have volcanic craters?
AnswerThere is extensive evidence of past volcanic activity on Mars in the form of extinct volcanoes, the most famous of which is Olympus Mons, the highest known mountain in the Solar System. However, there is no current volcanic activity on Mars and it is apparent that Mars has undergone a cooling process, leading to all volcanic activity ceasing.There is extensive evidence of past volcanic activity on Mars in the form of extinct volcanoes, the most famous of which is Olympus Mons, the highest known mountain in the Solar System.

How does volcanic ash in Earths atomosphere affect solar radiation?
It blocks (some of) it from reaching the surface of the Earth.
How does volcanic ash in Earth's atmosphere affect solar radiation?
It increases the amount of solar radiation that is reflected into space
How would the loss of solar energy affect every day activity?
it doesn't because solar energy is a renewable resource
What type of activity has been seen on Io?
Io is the most geologically active object in the Solar System, it has over 400 active volcanoes. So, the answer would be volcanic activity.
What solar events occur during volcanic eruptions?
There are no Solar events that are connected to volcanic eruptions.
