Title:	eVolv2k_v1: an ice-core based volcanic stratospheric sulfur injection database
Created:	Thu Jun 30 00:00:00 GMT 2016

Detailed information

Product description:	This dataset contains ice core-based estimates of volcanic stratospheric sulfur injections covering the years 500 BCE to 1900 CE. 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).
