The Development of Volcanic Ash Cloud Layers over Hours to Days Due to Atmospheric Turbulence Layering
Volcanic ash clouds often become multilayered and thin with distance from the vent. We explore one mechanism for the development of this layered structure. We review data on the characteristics of turbulence layering in the free atmosphere, as well as examples of observations of layered clouds both...
