The 1257 Samalas eruption
(Lombok, Indonesia): the single
greatest stratospheric gas release
of the Common Era
Our findings not only provide robust constraints for the modelling of the combined impact of sulphur and halogens on stratosphere chemistry of the largest eruption of the last millennium, but also develop a methodology to better quantify the degassing budgets of explosive eruptions of all magnitudes.
It's hard to find open-access papers on modeling parts of the Earth system and then fit them into larger aspects, such as climate change. It shows the degree of analysis that is involved. There are also interesting tid-bits on the consequences of that eruption.
