Fig. 3: Time evolution of volcanic aerosol in the baseline experiment mean (H-24km) and sensitivity experiments.

From: Volcanic forcing of high-latitude Northern Hemisphere eruptions

Fig. 3

The shading indicates two standard deviations of the H-24km ensemble. a Global SO2 burden anomaly. b Global SO4 burden anomaly and the e-folding times of total sulphur (S, SO2 + SO4). The grey dashed lines in (a, b) indicate the injected sulphur mass divided by e. c Global mean SO4-mass-weighted mean effective radius (Reff). The grey dashed line indicates the peak scattering efficiency for volcanic SO4 as a function of Reff47. d Global mean SAOD550nm anomaly (left axis). The markers indicate the cumulative global mean SAOD550nm anomaly after 5 years, and the error bars represent two standard deviations of the H-24km ensemble (right axis). Note the different time axes.
