Sulfur Dioxide Emission from Mt Pinatubo Eruption, June 1991
This animation shows sulfur dioxide in the stratosphere during the Mt. Pinatubo eruption and for a few weeks after the eruption. Stratospheric SO2 dissipates rather quickly compared to volcanic ash and stratoshperic H2SO4.

Sulfur dioxide emission for the two weeks following the Mt. Pinatubo eruption.    Sulfur dioxide emission for the two weeks following the Mt. Pinatubo eruption.
