The end-Triassic mass extinction (ETME) is thought to have been caused by voluminous,
pulsed volcanic activity of the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP). Over the last …

This chapter surveys the evolution of research on the 536–50 CE climatic downturn and its
human impacts. It presents the written evidence for atmospheric anomalies over the …

Global climate change, prior to the 20th century, appears to have been initiated primarily by
major changes in volcanic activity. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is the most voluminous chemically …

Explosive volcanism is a key contributor to climate variability on interannual to centennial
timescales. Understanding the far-field societal impacts of eruption-forced climatic changes …

Abstract 1783/4 has been recognised as a mortality “crisis year” in the population history of
England. This demographic incident coincides with the Laki Craters eruption, Iceland, which …

The Lakagígar eruption in Iceland during 1783 was followed by the severe winter of
1783/1784, which was characterised by low temperatures, frozen soils, ice-bound …

Recent phase equilibrium studies, combined with analytical and petrological data, provide
rigorous constraints on the pre-eruptive PTf H 2 0-fO 2-fS 2-fCO 2 conditions of silicic to …

Results from the first chemistry-transport model study of the impact of the 1783–1784 Laki
fissure eruption (Iceland: 64° N, 17° W) upon atmospheric composition are presented. The …

The long 1783-1784 eruption of Laki in southern Iceland, was one of the first eruptions to
have been linked to an observed climate anomaly, having been held responsible for cold …
