I missed your second point: "<i>the eruption itself counters global warming by blocking sunlight</i>"<br /><br />Wow, it would seem that night itself would do that, since it always, 24/7, covers half the earth at any given time (stopping sunlight more effectively than clouds do).<br /><br />In terms of gases, volcanoes release moisture and carbon dioxide primarily; one adds to ocean levels, while the other is a green house gas.<br /><br />Furthermore, one scientist explains:<br /><br />"<i>The Icelandic volcano might cause slight <b>warming</b> in the atmosphere, but not as strong as the Pinatubo eruption in the Philippines in 1991, said a Swedish climate expert.<br /><br />The Pinatubo eruption was much stronger, throwing all the ashes up into the stratosphere (more than 10,000 meters up in the atmosphere), Fred Goldberg told Xinhua by email.<br /><br />Goldberg, who specifically focuses his research on the relations between Pinatubo volcano and global warming, said the current volcano eruption in Iceland is not as strong and the ashes are therefore not thrown into the stratosphere, but remaining in the troposphere at 5,000 to 10,000 meters.<br /><br />The <b>incoming sunlight will warm these ash particles, which in turn will warm the surrounding air</b> and therefore may cause a slight warming of the atmosphere, said Goldberg</i>."

In fact, I anticipate that they'll argue that the eruption itself counters global warming by blocking sunlight, therefore global warming issues needn't be taken so seriously.NowhereManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12745173041874539711noreply@blogger.com
