AbstractGMS-4/VISSR and NOAA-10/AVHRR data of Mt. Pinatubo area taken on June 15, 1991 reveal an aspect of the stratospheric diffusion of erupted volcanic dust. Erupted dust or Gasses reached a height of about 34 km above sea level. The eruption continued about 8 hours from 6Z to 15Z of June 15, 1991. Scale of the dust diffusion pattern grew up to a size about 600 km in diameter in south-north direction. At the beginning stage to the big eruption, a series of eruptions occurred but those scale was rather smaller than that of the latter big eruption.
