There are numerous climate events referred to as "volcanic winters".

These are caused by dust and aerosols* lifted high into the stratosphere by volcanic plumes.

But some climatic events seem not to coincide with any specific large eruption; there's just nothing big enough to account for the effect.

We suggest that two or more volcanoes erupting simultaneously might meet the requirement.

Therefore, a comparison between known eruption dates of all volcanoes and climatic dips might be useful.

       One of the problems with this is that it is very difficult to determine the date of an ancient eruption to within a few years. If two eruptions happen a decade apart, their effects will not be synergistic.

       We never said it would be easy, did we ?

       Yes, but they went to Accounts along with the expenses form. Go on, you try getting them back.

       W. H. Auden once addressed a poem to his microbiome, except it was in about 1971, so he didn't call it that.

       It was about his stoma, following an abdominal operation.

       Keep reading the title as "volcano parts wanted".

       That too.

       Curiously enough, that confusion between two very different authors brings us almost back on topic; for Haldane (the one quoted by [8th]) was not only a socialist, but a card-carrying communist. See last paragraph of idea.

       I know I get chills every time Trumputin exhales.   

       Maybe with a little luck we can balance out the global warming with a bit of ash?
