How many casualties and deaths were recorded on the mount tambora eruption in 1815?

Answer 1

The death toll of the 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora is difficult to determine. It is estimated that at least 10,000 were killed directly by the eruption while 50,000-90,000 died due to indirect regional impacts. The effect on global climate is estimated to have killed 90,000 people. This adds up to a total of 150,000-190,000 deaths due to all direct and indirect effects.

Answer 2

Mount Tambora

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tambora erupted in 1815 with a rating of seven on the Volcanic Explosivity Index, making it the largest eruption since the Lake Taupo eruption in about 180 CE. The 1815 eruption of Tambora was the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history. The explosion was heard on Sumatra island (more than 2,000 km (1,200 mi) away). Heavy volcanic ash falls were observed as far away as Borneo, Sulawesi, Java and Maluku islands. Most deaths from the eruption were from starvation and disease, as the eruptive fallout ruined agricultural productivity in the local region. The death toll was at least 71,000 people (perhaps the most deadly eruption in history), of whom 11,000-12,000 were killed directly by the eruption; the often-cited figure of 92,000 people killed is believed to be an overestimate. The eruption created global climate anomalies; 1816 became known as the "Year Without a Summer" because of the effect on North American and European weather. Agricultural crops failed and livestock died in much of the Northern Hemisphere, resulting in the worst famine of the 19th century.

Answer 3

15,000 people died in the last eruption of Mount Llullaillaco.
