AGU Chapman Conference on Volcanism and the Atmosphere
Volcanic eruptions can have a profound effect on the Earth’s atmosphere and environment on all time scales. From being the source of most gases in the atmosphere over geologic time to producing climate change detectable over the past millennia, to threatening aviation, volcanic eruptions provide a strong link between Earth’s activity and its influence on the atmosphere and human history.
To review this progress and stimulate new work in this important area, we are holding a third Chapman Conference on volcanic eruptions and the atmosphere, this time broadening it to specifically include aviation.
