These Column Mass Loading (CML) data provide an alternative information source to the Volcanic Ash (VA) Concentration data shown on the usual web pages. The CML data show the mass of VA per unit area (g/m2) and represents a "snapshot" of where the VA is expected to be at the shown validity time, compared to the 6 hour average position shown on the VA concentration data. The data are also provided at three-hourly steps through the forecast period, compared to the six-hourly steps for the VA concentration data.
