This session invites papers on all aspects of the relationship of volcanic eruptions and the atmosphere, including model and observational studies of the climatic effects of volcanic eruptions, effects on ozone depletion, the potential for supervolcanoes to completely disrupt civilization, threats to aviation, effects on long-term climate change and implications for detecting and attribution global warming to anthropogenic forcing, ice core records of past volcanism, radiative and dynamical responses, remote sensing of volcanic aerosols, plumes, and stratospheric transport of aerosols.
