Volcanic eruptions represent a significant source of dust and SO2. It has been estimated that volcanic emissions of aerosols are in the range of 4 to 10000 teragrams per year on a global scale. These emissions can cause visibility degradation, can penetrate into the lungs and can be transported over continents. Currently, on a single particle level, there is limited knowledge of this important ...
