Question

True or False?
The long term dangers of a volcanic eruption are the ash that remains in the
atmosphere for years after the eruption which block the solar energy causing a
increase in global temperatures.

Answer 1

The correct answer is; False.

Further Explanation:

Ash does not remain in the atmosphere for years after an eruption. It only takes a few days or at the most a few weeks for all of the ash to leave the atmosphere. It has little impact on the climate or global temperatures.

When a volcano erupts there are three things that the volcano puts out, they are;

1. Ash
2. Lava
3. Sulfur dioxide (SO2)

The one thing that does have an effect on the global temperatures of an eruption is the volcanic aerosols. These aerosols, when released, reflect the solar radiation back to space.
