Volcanoes & Climate

In this episode, I talk about how volcanic eruptions can affect
climate - by releasing ash, gas, and aerosols.  We talk
about the role of CO2 and SO2 and what effect they may have.
  I talked specifically about Pinatubo, Tambora, and the
Laki eruptions.


I also mention an activity available for GEOetc Members called
Climeworld that members can download and use in their classrooms
to show students how the volcano's location can affect climates
in different hemispheres.
