Southern Hemisphere Atmospheric Circulation Effects of the 1991 Mount Pinatubo Eruption
1 Global average cooling and Northern Hemisphere winter warming are well-known 2 climatic responses to the June 15, 1991 eruption of the Mount Pinatubo volcano in the 3 Philippines. Here we investigate the Southern Hemisphere response. Using National Centers for 4 Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research Reanalysis, European 5 Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasting...
متن کاملParticles in the great Pinatubo volcanic cloud of June 1991: The role of ice
[1] Pinatubo’s 15 June 1991 eruption was Earth’s largest of the last 25 years, and it formed a substantial volcanic cloud. We present results of analysis of satellite-based infrared remote sensing using Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder/High Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder/2 (TOVS/HIRS/2) sensors, during the first few days of atmospher...
متن کاملRe-evaluation of SO2 release of the 15 June 1991 Pinatubo eruption using ultraviolet and infrared satellite sensors
[1] In this study, ultraviolet TOMS (Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer) satellite data for SO2 are reevaluated for the first 15 days following the 15 June 1991 Pinatubo eruption to reflect new data retrieval and reduction methods. Infrared satellite SO2 data from the TOVS/HIRS/2 (TIROS (Television Infrared Observation Satellite) Optical Vertical Sounder/High Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder...
متن کاملShort-term climatic impact of the 1991 volcanic eruption of Mt. Pinatubo and effects on atmospheric tracers
Large explosive volcanic eruptions are capable of injecting considerable amounts of particles and sulphur gases (mostly sulphur dioxide) above the tropopause, causing increases in the stratospheric aerosol optical depth that may be even larger than one order of magnitude. The efolding particle lifetime in the stratosphere is much longer than in the troposphere (one year versus a few days) so th...
متن کاملArctic oscillation response to the 1991 Pinatubo eruption in the SKYHI general circulation model with a realistic quasi-biennial oscillation
[1] Stratospheric aerosol clouds from large tropical volcanic eruptions can be expected to alter the atmospheric radiative balance for a period of up to several years. Observations following several previous major eruptions suggest that one effect of the radiative perturbations is to cause anomalies in the Northern Hemisphere extratropical winter tropospheric circulation that can be broadly cha...
