Volcanic erpptions can have a short term cooling effect, because the ash they throw up can block out some of the sun's energy. They can also have a very minimal longer term effect because of the carbon dioxide they emit. The major eruption in Iceland in 2010 produced between 150,000 and 300,000 tones of carbon dioxide per day, but this was balanced by a reduction of around 300,000 tonnes per day in human induced emissions of carbon dioxide, because of cancelled airline flights. Compared to annual emissions of 30 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels, these amounts would have no perceptible effect.
What else can I help you with?
How a change in the earths orbit can affect the earths climate?
earths tempertures
What effect can a very large eruption have on earths climate?
It will cool the earth's surface as radiation from the sun is blocked from entering the atmosphere
What climates do volcanoes need to be in to erupt?
Volcanoes can erupt in any climate. Climate does not affect a volcano's ability to erupt.
What Active volcanoes are added to the early Earths atmosphere?
There are smallamount of volcanoes. They emit so2 and co2 gases.
Why volcanoes are commonly found of the edges of earths moving plate?
This is where the weaknesses in the earths crust lie and it is the easiest place for lava to spew out of these weaker areas, therefore forming volcanoes
How do volcanoes change earths climate?
by giving of toxic gas and big clouds of smoke.
Why do volcanoes cause earths climate get colder?
Volcanoes cause Earth's climate to get colder because their airborne debris reduce insulation.
What is the true relationship between oceans and earths climate?
The oceans have a major effect on climate around the globe.
How a change in the earths orbit can affect the earths climate?
earths tempertures
How are volcanoes essential to earths survival?
However, volcanoes are essential to earths survival they act like a safety valve for the planet (it releases pressure)
Where are most of the earths volcanoes hidden?
The Oceans
Which is powered by engery from earths interior?
Volcanoes
Is powered by energy from the earths interior?
Volcanoes
How do volcanoes takes place?
Volcanoes are essentially holes in the earths surface through which magma and lava can erupt. when pressure builds up below the earths crust, magma is then forced violently out of the volcanoes.
Do Plate tectonics effect earths climate?
Yes, because it can make a volcano erupt which will shoot up ash into the air.
What effect can a very large eruption have on earths climate?

What climates do volcanoes need to be in to erupt?
Volcanoes can erupt in any climate. Climate does not affect a volcano's ability to erupt.
