Recorded sources

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that volcanoes can be covered in snow, even at tropical latitudes?

Unclear. Several peer-reviewed sources confirm that volcanoes can carry seasonal snow cover, including Katla in Iceland and volcanoes in Turkey, but all the placed evidence concerns high-latitude or mid-latitude settings and none addresses snow on volcanoes at tropical latitudes.
