Owing to modern development of information technologies and computer simulation systems, and datasets derived from open historical meteorological data archives, it appeared possible to perform retrospective analysis of large explosive volcanic eruptions. This work analyzes the results of simulation of the events associated with the eruptive cloud propagation during the catastrophic eruption of the November, 1964 Sheveluch volcano. The obtained additional eruptive cloud parameters enabled us to reproduce the dynamics of the explosive eruption and to validate its magmatic genesis.
