Some sulfate transportation from the Thera eruption to the ice sheets seems certain.
“The tropopause is c.14 km above sea level at the latitude of Santorini, and both the Plinian33 and co-ignimbrite34 phases of the eruption are calculated to have produced columns in excess of 30 km, so some sulfate transportation to the ice sheets seems certain.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
