129 "...Mt. Krakatoa..."
"Mt. Krakatoa is a volcanic island in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra in
Indonesia. The name is used for the island group, the main island (also called Rakata), and
the volcano as a whole. It has erupted repeatedly, massively, and with disastrous
consequences throughout recorded history. The best known eruption culminated in a series
of massive explosions on August 26-27 1883, which was among the most violent volcanic
events in modern times. With a Volcanic Explosivity Index of 6, it was equivalent to 200
megatonnes of TNT — about 13,000 times the yield of the Little Boy bomb (13 to 16 KT),
which devastated Hiroshima, Japan.
The 1883 eruption ejected more than 25 cubic kilometres of rock, ash, and pumice, and
generated the loudest sound historically reported: the cataclysmic explosion was distinctly
heard as far away as Perth in Australia approx. 1,930 miles (3,110 km), and the island of
Rodrigues near Mauritius approx. 3,000 miles (5,000 km). Near Krakatoa, according to
official records, 165 villages and towns were destroyed and 132 seriously damaged, at least
36,417 (official toll) people died, and many thousands were injured by the eruption, mostly
from the tsunamis which followed the explosion.
The eruption destroyed two thirds of the island of Krakatoa. Eruptions at the volcano since
1927 have built a new island in the same location, called Anak Krakatau (child of Krakatoa)."

130 "... colossal volcanic explosion..."
"A supervolcano is a volcano that produces the largest and most voluminous kinds of
eruption on Earth. The explosivity of such eruptions varies, but the volume of ejected tephra
is enough to radically alter the landscape and severely affect global climate for years,
with cataclysmic consequences for life VEI-8 volcanic events have included eruptions at the
following locations. Estimates of the volume of erupted material are given in parentheses.
• Lake Taupo, North Island, New Zealand - Oruanui eruption 26,500 years ago (1,170
km³)
• Lake Toba, Sumatra, Indonesia - 75,000 years ago (2,800 km³)
• Yellowstone Caldera, Wyoming, United States - 2.2 million years ago (2,500 km³)
and 640,000 years ago (1,000 km³)
• La Garita Caldera, Colorado, United States - Source of the truly enormous eruption
of the Fish Canyon Tuff 27.8 million years ago (~5,000 km³)
The Lake Toba eruption plunged the Earth into a volcanic winter, eradicating an
estimated 60% of the human population (although humans managed to survive, even
in the vicinity of the volcano), and was responsible for the formation of sulfuric acid in
the atmosphere.
Many other supermassive eruptions have also occurred in the geological past."
