Volcanic forcing of high-latitude Northern Hemisphere eruptions

Abstract High-latitude explosive volcanic eruptions can cause substantial hemispheric cooling. Here, we use a whole-atmosphere chemistry-climate model to simulate Northern Hemisphere (NH) high-latitude volcanic eruptions of magnitude similar to the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption. Our simulations reveal...
