Aeolus passes over a volcanic plume

07 Feb 2023

TROPOMI tracks the path of a volcanic plume


Title: Aeolus passes over a volcanic plume

Description: The orbital plane of Aeolus ran over the volcanic plumes – which were observed by Copernicus Sentinel-5P – several times in the months after the eruption, and wind patterns were identified that provided clear evidence of anticyclonic motion within the plume.
