Dee (Reports, 27 March 2020, p. 1477) claimed that large volcanic eruptions do not produce a detectable El Niño response. However, they come to the wrong conclusion because they have ignored the fundamental climate response to large volcanic eruptions: Volcanic eruptions cool the surface, thus masking the relative El Niño warming.
迪伊（报道，2020 年 3 月 27 日，第 1477 页）声称大型火山爆发不会产生可察觉的厄尔尼诺现象响应。然而，他们得出了错误的结论，因为他们忽略了大型火山爆发的基本气候响应：火山爆发使地表冷却，从而掩盖了相对厄尔尼诺现象的变暖。
