Ice core-derived volcanic sulfate deposition composites for Antarctica (Sigl et al., 2014) and Greenland (Sigl et al., 2015) are scaled to volcanic stratospheric sulfur injection based on a method similar to that of Gao et al., (2007).

So a value of 2 means that the NH sulfate loading was twice as large as that of the SH. Conversely, a value of 0.5 means the SH loading was twice as large as the NH loading.; unit: not filled day of eruption day of eruption; unit: day stratospheric sulfur injection of eruption stratospheric sulfur injection of eruption; unit: Tg[S] year of eruption year of eruption; unit: yr month of eruption month of eruption; unit: month NetCDF 0 https://www.wdc-climate.de/ui/entry?acronym=eVolv2k_v1 information collection n/a None
