 Volcanic winter of 536

The volcanic winter of 536 is a term used to describe a significant climate event that occurred in the mid-6th century, specifically around the year 536 CE. This phenomenon is widely attributed to massive volcanic eruptions, which led to dramatic changes in weather patterns and widespread cooling across parts of the Northern Hemisphere. The leading theory is that a series of volcanic eruptions, likely from one or more volcanoes in the tropics, injected vast amounts of volcanic ash and sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere.
