    Volcanic particles of different sizes can travel different distances from a vent and remain in the atmosphere for varying amounts of time. Fine ash can travel hundreds to thousands of kilometers and stay in the atmosphere for days to months, while large lapilli and blocks only travel tens of meters to few kilometers and are airborne for seconds to minutes. The document outlines the particle types, sizes, typical travel distances, and residence times in the atmosphere for volcanic ejecta.
