The Hypothesis of Volcanogenic Soot and the Possibility of Its Observational Confirmation

The hypothesis suggested by V.V. Zuev with coauthors in 2014 about the possibility of formation of nanosize black carbon particles in the eruptive column of a volcanic eruption with VEI ≥ 4 is discussed. Probable characteristics of volcanogenic soot particles and their distinction from stratospheric...

Zusammenfassung:The hypothesis suggested by V.V. Zuev with coauthors in 2014 about the possibility of formation of nanosize black carbon particles in the eruptive column of a volcanic eruption with VEI ≥ 4 is discussed. Probable characteristics of volcanogenic soot particles and their distinction from stratospheric black carbon particles of other origins are analyzed. Suitable instrumental techniques for particle detection are briefly reviewed. Observational facts of possible earlier detection of volcanogenic soot particles are given. The idea of a complex experiment for observational confirmation of the hypothesis is suggested.
