Short summary

We measured the relationship between volcanic aerosol and trace gases in the stratosphere using the OSIRIS and MIPAS satellite instruments between 2002 and 2014. We found that levels of stratospheric NO₂ and N₂O₅ both decreased significantly in the presence of volcanic aerosol. These decreases were consistent with the modeling results.
