Abstract
The eruption of Mt. Pinatubo was the largest in the twentieth century injecting 30Tg of sulfate into the stratosphere. The period after the eruption was associated with low values of stratospheric ozone and decreased rates of increase of greenhouse gases. We use nudged versions of the UKCA model to provide hindcasts of the period to study causes of these changes.
