When a volcano erupts, it releases lava into the air.

Sulfur gas and carbon emitted by volcanoes into the atmosphere also affect the global climate.

Many researchers think it would be a good idea.

If predicting when and how volcanic eruptions contributed to climate change?

recently

An international research team led by the University of Saskatchewan in Canada has revealed that it has used state-of-the-art technology to better understand past volcanic eruptions.

and understand how volcanic eruptions contribute to climate change and the spread of atmospheric radiation.

The team explained that they had used sophisticated computer modeling technology to reconstruct a series of volcanic eruptions over the past 11,500 years, including more than 850 past volcanic eruptions by measuring the amount of sulfur in the ice core. It found that a total of 26 eruptions in the past 11,500 years have released sulfur.

The researchers revealed that estimating the amount of sulfate present in the ice

and assess how aerosols in the stratosphere from past eruptions will affect atmospheric radiation.

Newly developed tools will allow ice core data to be used to simulate Holocene climate models and enable a rapid assessment of the impact of future eruptions.
