21 gru 2021 · For volcanic ash, characteristics that inform whether ash may cause harm if inhaled or ingested include particle size, particle shape, surface area, and the presence of leachable elements. Additional, specific hazards can vary according to magma composition and eruption dynamics.
11 lut 2022 · Researchers immediately started examining the composition of the 540 million tons of ash the volcano spewed as it erupted. 30 “The ash contained a mineral called crystalline silica. Given that industrial exposures to mineral dusts cause diseases like silicosis and lung cancer, 31 there was immediate concern that volcanic crystalline silica ...

3 lip 2020 · Treating volcanic ash as PM, we (1) consider existing models for HIA for general outdoor PM, (2) identify documented health effects from exposure to ash in volcanic eruptions, (3) discuss potential issues of applying CRFs based on the composition and concentration of ash‐related PM, and (4) critically review available case studies of volcanic ...
29 kwi 2006 · This review focuses on the respiratory effects of ash particles, so other health hazards such as the chemical impacts of ash on water quality (including the toxicity of ash for grazing animals (Cronin et al. 2000)), trauma to the eye from ash particles (Fraunfelder et al. 1983) and the mental health consequences of ashfall events (Shore et al ...
