topVolcanic ash is typically a mixture of crushed-up solids - including rocks, minerals and glass - and gases, such as water vapor, carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide, according to NASA.
topA volcanic eruption is essentially the only natural way for short-lived - less than a few years - gases like sulfur dioxide and water vapor to make it into the stratosphere.
topThe stratosphere is a very dry place and typically only the gases with a long lifespan -spanning decades - filter up into it, according to Huey
