| Abstract: | Volcanic glass shards of rhyolite, corresponding in age to 1479-1480 eruption of Mount St Helens, WA, were identified. Discusses atmospheric significance: difference in depositional timing suggests tropospheric transport of ash and stratospheric transport of sulphate aerosol. Large-scale climatic perturbations following eruption were evidently negligible. Glaciochemical indicators suggest eruption took place in late autumn to early winter. |
