Environmental and Climatic Effects of Atmospheric Processing of Volcanic Ash vs Mineral Dust
Received Date: Sep 05, 2022 / Published Date: Sep 30, 2022
Abstract
This article compares volcanic ash and mineral dust in terms of their sources, atmospheric loads, deposition mechanisms, atmospheric processing, and effects on the environment and climate. It also compares their chemical and physical properties. Although there are significant differences between the histories of volcanic ash and mineral dust particles before they are released into the atmosphere, there are many similarities between how the atmosphere is processed at ambient temperatures and the effects on the environment and climate. This review paper seeks to encourage future combined research methods to advance our existing understanding through close collaboration between mineral dust and volcanic ash experts by outlining the similarities and contrasts between the processes and consequences of volcanic ash and mineral dust.
