Video: BSC Simulations Predict Air Traffic Disruption from Antarctic Volcanic Ash

Researchers are using HPC systems at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center to predict potential threats to air traffic posed by Antarctic volcanoes. "Antarctic volcanoes might pose a higher threat than previously considered. A research focused on the potential impacts of ash dispersal and fallout from Deception Island highlights how ash clouds entrapped in circumpolar upper-level winds have the potential to reach lower latitudes and disrupt Austral hemisphere air traffic. The study has been published today in the Nature group journal, Scientific Reports."
