Volcanic Ash Clouds

Volcanic Ash Clouds is a geophysical phenomenon consisting of a suspension of fine particulate matter ejected during volcanic eruptions that distinguishes itself from other atmospheric aerosols by its origin in volcanic explosive activity and its composition of silicate particles, glass shards, and minerals with the potential to disrupt climate, aviation, and ecosystems.
