The eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD released a significant amount of volcanic ash, gases, and aerosols into the atmosphere, which impacted air quality and climate. The ash and sulfur dioxide contributed to short-term cooling effects and could have led to diminished sunlight reaching the Earth's surface. Additionally, the release of these materials may have caused acid rain and affected weather patterns in the surrounding regions. Overall, such volcanic eruptions can have lasting effects on the atmosphere and climate systems.
It will cool the earth's surface as radiation from the sun is blocked from entering the atmosphere
All depends on the size of the eruption. If it were a big eruption then it could bellow ash and smoke into the atmosphere and cause sunlight and heat to be blocked around the world making the earths temperature fall for a little while. Also it will send gasses like methane, carbon dioxide and sulpher into the atmosphere, adding to the greenhouse gas level and maybe contributing to global warming.
Yes!

Heat!!
I do not mean to sound rude or patronising but air IS the atmosphere.

They slow the loss of heat
The eruption of a very large volcano
It is not, because the greenhouse affect causes global warming.
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.

Burning fossil fuels adds carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, to the atmosphere. This can raise global temperatures.
how do geologists think earths atmosphere is formed
it made it possible 4 it to be plants animals and human life
