"Using a climate model, researchers quantify the sensitivity of the tropical monsoon precipitation to the meridional distribution of volcanic #SulfateAerosols prescribed in the #stratosphere in terms of the changes in aerosol optical depth (AOD)."

"In the experiments, large changes in summer monsoon 🌧️ in the tropical monsoon areas are simulated, mainly over the Indian region, in alliance with meridional shifts in the location of the intertropical convergence zone caused by changes in interhemispheric AOD differences."

#Sulfate #aerosols are particles in the atm that have a net #cooling effect on the #climate. One of the most uncertain aspects of climate modeling is the surplus of SA during the preindustrial era.Β 

So, a recent study explored preindustrial SA in a Greenland ice core.

"Sulfur isotopes in a Greenland ice core show that passive #volcanic degassing contributes 66% of preindustrial Arctic #sulfate."

"The volcanic inventory used by most climate models underestimates passive #degassing, possibly due to missing #HydrogenSulfide emissions."
