1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

The volcano injected some 15 billion tons of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere. There it reacted with water to form a layer of aerosol particles, which are primarily sulfuric acid droplets. Winds have take those aerosol particles all around the world. The stratosphere lacks rain clouds as a mechanism to wash out pollutants fast. This heavy influx of aerosol pollutants will remain in the stratosphere for years until natural chemical reactions and atmospheric circulation can filter them out.
