By What process can the volcanic eruption affect temperatures around the world?

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.

Why is the atmosphere affected after a volcanic eruption?

likely due to the gases and ash that are ejected during the eruption


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.


What eruption type was the Krakatoa eruption in 1883?

The Krakatoa eruption in 1883 was a Plinian eruption, which is a highly explosive volcanic event characterized by the eruption of vast amounts of ash and volcanic material into the atmosphere. The eruption of Krakatoa was one of the most powerful volcanic explosions in recorded history.


What is an eruption cloud?

An eruption cloud is a large plume of volcanic ash, gases, and other material that is ejected into the atmosphere during a volcanic eruption. These clouds can reach high into the atmosphere and pose hazards to aviation, health, and the environment.

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 is the role of volcanic eruption in nitrogen fixation?

How can a volcano eruption affect you if you live 1000 miles from the volcano?

A large volcanic eruption can send gases and clouds of particulates very high in the atmosphere, where they can be carried great distances by the wind, even in some cases for 1000 miles.
