The sulfur cloud that comes out after a volcanic eruption covers the earth's atmosphere, stops much sunlight from reaching Earth, and makes the Earth colder by 2 to 3 degrees Celsius.

What are three factors that affect the violence of a volcanic eruption?

Three factors that affect the violence of a volcanic eruption are the composition of the magma (viscosity and gas content), the location of the eruption (proximity to populated areas), and the type of volcano (shield, cinder cone, stratovolcano).


What are the two important factors that affect the explosiveness of a volcanic eruption?

Pressure and magma


How does volcanic eruption affect us?

by it's smoke, it's lava, and it's other harmful objects.


Is a volcano eruption considered a weather event?

No. While volcanic eruptions can affect weather, they are considered geologic events.


Is an eruption weather?

No. While some very large volcanic eruptions can affect the weather, the euption itself is a geologic event.


How can a volcanic eruption affect the sun?

A volcanic eruption here on Earth can not affect the Sun. However, a volcanic eruption here on Earth can put particles of ash and some volcanic gases into the atmosphere that affects the transparency of Earth's atmosphere to sunlight. With the ash content the skies near the volcano go dark during the day and with the gases (especially sulfur oxides) the amount of cloud cover increases causing sunlight to be reflected and the air to cool.

Are volcanic eruptions weather or climate related?

Volcanic eruptions are not directly related to weather or climate. They occur due to activity beneath the Earth's surface, such as pressure in magma chambers or tectonic movements, rather than changes in atmospheric conditions. However, volcanic eruptions can impact climate by releasing ash and gases into the atmosphere that can affect temperatures and weather patterns.


Can a volcano affect you if its on the other side of the world?

Yes, depending upon the magnitude (severity) of the eruption. Large clouds of ash can be blown across the globe, reducing visibility and restricting air travel. Seismic activity from a volcanic eruption can also trigger tsunami waves that can have devastating impacts far away from the original site of the volcanic eruption.


What natural process can quickly put large amounts of gas and solid materials directly into the stratosphere?

A volcanic eruption can quickly release large amounts of gas and solid materials directly into the stratosphere, leading to the formation of volcanic ash clouds and sulfur aerosols. This can affect climate by blocking sunlight and influencing atmospheric circulation patterns.


Identify and explain the 3 factors that effect the force of a volcanic eruption?

The silica content effects the force of a volcanic eruption because magma with a lot of silica is thicker and magma with less silica is thinner. The amount of dissolved gases in magma effects the force of a volcanic eruption because the less gas in the magma, the less pressure will be inside the volcano. The temperature of the magma effects the force of a volcanic eruption because the hotter the magma, the more runny it is.
