description abstractLidar observations of the stratosphere were made at Kingston, Jamaica (18.0°N, 76.8°W) following the eruptions of the Soufrière volcano of St. Vincent (13.2°N, 61.2°W) between 13 and 23 April 1979. Anomalous optical scattering was observed, at a height of ?16 km, between 1 and 5 May 1979. This is discussed in relation to the relevant meteorological wind data and is interpreted as being due to volcanic dust which has been carried eastward once round the earth in the strong, upper tropospheric, zonal winds.
