Scientific paper

While sampling stratospheric aerosols during July-August 1980 a plume of 'fresh' volcanic debris was observed in the Northern Hemisphere. The origin of this material seems to be a poorly documented explosive eruption of Gareloi volcano in the Aleutian Islands. The debris was sampled at an altitude of 19.2 km - almost twice the height of observed eruption clouds. Such remote, unobserved or poorly documented eruptions may be a source that helps maintain the 'ambient' stratospheric aerosol background.
