The 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo released massive quantities of sulfur dioxide. This led to the formation of tiny droplets of sulfuric acid in the stratosphere. These reflected sunlight back into space, reducing global temperatures.
Sulfur dioxide released by the eruption formed tiny droplets of sulfuric acid in the upper atmosphere, which blocked out a small portion of the sun's light, slightly lowering global temperatures.
Global temperatures might cool by several degrees
The change in temperature causes global warming. It affects water cycle.
There are several contenders for the most violent eruption of Kilauea, however they were all before recorded records on the island and have only been able to be extrapolated from the evidence left on the volcano. The one that is most understood of the explosive eruptions was the 1924. This explosive eruption from the summit caldera was most likely caused by a shallow interaction of super heated magma and ground water, as the caldera in that time was much deeper and the water table was a litle higher. This combination of a high water table and a deep caldera make Kiluaea prone to steam driven explosions from the summit. The Smithsonian Institute of Global Vlcanism has this eruption rated as a V.E.I. - 2. The eruptive column from the summit reached the altitude of the 1980 Mt. St. Helens eruption. Another contender for the largest explosive eruption took place in or around 1790. This eruption was like the 1924 eruption driven by water and magma interaction, but seemd to be significantly more powerful. However without further evidence the true power and nature of the eruption will not be understood. Smithsonian Institute of Global Volcanism has the eruption rated at a V.E.I. - 4.
Yes. The sulfur emissions from a large, explosive eruption can trigger a global reduction in temperatures for several years.

The answer would be that no crops would grow because of the sun blockage
because it destroies the ozone causing the higher temperatures. Which causes global warming harming the Earth.

global warming causes the sea to become higher temperatures, which are not suited for seahorses as they only live in certain temperatures, as well as more pollution and harmful substances. There is absolutely no evidence that global warming is warmiing the ocean's temps at all.
The difference in temperatures between the Equator and the north and south poles, plus the rotation of the earth, causes the air currents.
