  • Seasonal Variations of Volcanic Ash and Aerosol Emissions Around Sakurajima Detected by Two Lidars
    atmosphere Article Seasonal Variations of Volcanic Ash and Aerosol Emissions around Sakurajima Detected by Two Lidars Atsushi Shimizu 1,* , Masato Iguchi 2 and Haruhisa Nakamichi 2 1 National Institute for Environmental Studies, Tsukuba 305-8506, Japan 2 Sakurajima Volcano Research Center, Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University, Kagoshima 891-1419, Japan; [email protected] (M.I.); [email protected] (H.N.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-29-850-2489 Abstract: Two polarization-sensitive lidars were operated continuously to monitor the three-dimensional distribution of small volcanic ash particles around Sakurajima volcano, Kagoshima, Japan. Here, we estimated monthly averaged extinction coefficients of particles between the lidar equipment and the vent and compared our results with monthly records of volcanic activity reported by the Japan Meteorological Agency, namely the numbers of eruptions and explosions, the density of ash fall, and the number of days on which ash fall was observed at the Kagoshima observatory. Elevated extinction coefficients were observed when the surface wind direction was toward the lidar. Peaks in extinction coefficient did not always coincide with peaks in ash fall density, and these differences likely indicate differences in particle size. Keywords: volcanic ash; aerosol; lidar; extinction coefficient; horizontal wind Citation: Shimizu, A.; Iguchi, M.; 1. Introduction Nakamichi, H. Seasonal Variations of Volcanic eruptions are a natural source of atmospheric aerosols [1]. In the troposphere Volcanic Ash and Aerosol Emissions and stratosphere, gaseous SO2 is converted to sulfate or sulfuric acid within several around Sakurajima Detected by Two days, which can remain in the atmosphere for more than a week.
