cooling decades deeper effects found layers level persist remained sea
That cooling penetrated into deeper layers of the ocean, where it remained for decades after the event. We found that volcanic effects on sea level can persist for many decades.
eruption future rely results slowing suggesting warming
These results are suggesting that an eruption such as Pinatubo temporarily slows down the warming but it is only temporary, and in the future we can't rely on eruptions as a way of slowing the warming because we have no idea when or where they're going to occur.
appears decades effect eruption large last possibly though
It appears as though with a very large eruption the effect can last for many decades and possibly as long as a century.
future level ocean rely sea slowing warming
We can't rely on future volcanic eruptions slowing ocean warming and sea level rises.
