Key terms explained Volcanic ash advisory A volcanic ash advisory provides information about airborne ash and its effects on aviation.

Volcanic ash Volcanic ash consists of tiny rock, glass and crystal fragments, typically produced during an explosive volcanic eruption or other processes such as rock avalanches.

VAAC Volcanic Ash Advisory Centers (VAAC) are research centres who monitor volcanic ash clouds in real time. Each time, a volcano erupts a significant ash cloud, short reports are issued and transmitted directly to air control centres. The 9 VAAC are located in London, Toulouse, Tokyo, Darwin, Anchorage, Washington, Montreal and Buenos Aireas and collectively cover most of the globe.
