The 1883 eruption of Krakatoa, a volcano in Indonesia, killed tens of thousands of people and blasted ash into the stratosphere. This had the effect of cooling the planet by about 3 degrees in the year following the explosion.

What are the World wide impact of volcanic eruption?

Many people are killed and many injured. Also, on a more global basis, the earth's climate can often be disrupted. An example being the Mt. Tambora eruption which caused the Earth's yearly average climate to drop by 3 degrees Celsius.


Which of the following is an example of human impact on climate changes?

Global Warming


The human activity most likely to impact climate on a global scale is?

combustion of fossil fuels


What impact is burning fossil fuels having on the global climate?

Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) emit polluting greenhouse gases which are incredible harmful to the planet, causing global warming. Global warming is causing climate change.


How did Krakatoa affect people around it?

I don't know if this might help but its worth a try : --> The 1883 eruption ejected more than six cubic miles (25 cubic kilometres) of rock, ash, and pumice [1], and generated the loudest sound ever historically recorded by human beings - the cataclysmic explosion was distinctly heard as far away as Perth in Australia, and the island of Rodrigues near Mauritius. Atmospheric shock waves reverbrated around the world. Near Krakatoa, 165 villages were devastated, 36,000 people died and uncountable thousands were injured by the eruption, mostly in the tsunami which followed the biggest explosion. The eruption destroyed two-thirds of the pre-existing island of Krakatoa. New eruptions at the volcano since 1927 have built a new island, called Anak Krakatau (son of Krakatoa.

How can a particularly violent volcanic eruption impact global temperature?

Ash released from a volcanic eruption can enter the upper atmosphere where it can reflect sunlight. Volcanoes formed the early atmosphere of the planet, so they definitely can have global impact, an increase in agriculture does not signify a significant change in global temperature.

What are 3 reasons for mass extinction?

Mass extinction could occur due to climate change, an asteroid impact and even a volcanic eruption.


Is there a significance about volcanoes for us now?

Yes, there is.Volcanoes can have catastrophic consequences, not only locally but across the world. A large eruption can throw tonnes of smoke and other particulate matter into the upper atmosphere and this can affect global warming. In turn, this can impact on climate, rainfall patterns, crops.


When did humans have an impact on the climate?

The supposed theory is that humans have been accelerating global climate change since the 1800s (slightly over 200 years). Some say we have GREATLY impacted global climate and desperately need alternative energy sources before we cause a "runaway greenhouse effect". Some believe that humans have little to NO impact on the climate. My personal belief is that the arithmetic prevails. I do not believe that 200 years is enough time for heavy industry to effect the planets climate.
