The #Kilauea #eruption grabbed the #volcano headlines this year, but the largest explosive eruption of 2018 was at #Ambae (#Vanuatu) in July. Off the radar for most, it produced a stratospheric SO2 cloud seen slowly dispersing in this @JPSSProgram OMPS SO2 🛰️ data. @NASAEarth

SO2 emissions from #AnakKrakatau during the Dec 23-28, 2018 activity, measured by @JPSSProgram OMPS. SO2 mass loadings not particularly high, but the mode of delivery to the upper troposphere - via a continuous volcanoCb fed by a Surtseyan-style eruption - was certainly unusual.

The #eruption of #Calbuco #volcano (#Chile) 4 years ago was one of the largest explosive eruptions of the last decade. Animation shows the SO2 cloud detected by @JPSSProgram OMPS - note how the cloud gets caught in an anticyclone off S. Africa before zipping off to the SE.

The problem is that @windyforecast displays model data that use an incorrect volcanic SO2 emissions inventory. For actual #volcanic SO2 emissions from Kilauea, check @USGSVolcanoes or recent satellite SO2 observations like these from @JPSSProgram OMPS:...

Volcanic SO2 emissions from #Soputan cover the Minahasa Peninsula of #Sulawesi #Indonesia in this @JPSSProgram OMPS image on Oct 4. ~11 kt SO2 mass is fairly typical of recent Soputan eruptions. This plume should not be a significant hazard to people on the ground. @NASAEarth

Exploring the new #Sentinel5P #Tropomi SO2 data - comparing with @JPSSProgram OMPS data for the recent #Soputan (#Sulawesi) eruption. Nice to see general agreement in the total SO2 mass, but Tropomi resolves much more structure in the volcanic cloud. @CopernicusData @ESA_EO

And @JPSSProgram SNPP/OMPS SO2 measurements detect an almost identical amount. We are lucky to have several operational UV and IR satellites to independently constrain these #volcanic SO2 emissions and reduce uncertainties. @NASAEarth @NASAEarthData #TaalEruption2020

The #Fagradalsfjall (#Iceland) #volcanic #eruption was detected by the @NASA @JPSSProgram VIIRS Day/Night band 'visible image at night'. This very sensitive band detects diffuse visible light shining through clouds, which can obscure the thermal signal from #lava. h/t @anttilip
