It erupted because there was an earth quake that day or day before which caused the plates to move slightly causing the magma to rise up the chamber and explode!
Mauna Loa is on the Pacific Plate. It is not near any other plates.
I am sorry if this is not the right answer No Krakatoa has not erupted in the past 100 years if and when it does erupt the it will be a very big erution or a small one or it has fallen dormit forever or will fall dormit. hope this helps
It would be a catastraphy if Mauna Loa were to eruppt again, Mauna Loa is a Hawaiian volcano that is the biggest active volcano in the world, it basicly destroyed everything last time it erupted in 1984 (I think it was at least... in 1984) and when it did everything on the main hawaiian island (which is the one that Mauna Loa is on) was basicly destroyed.

During the 1984 eruption of Mauna Loa on the island of Hawaii, around 16 houses were destroyed by lava flows. Fortunately, no lives were lost in this eruption due to timely evacuations and preparation efforts.
Mauna Loa is considered to be an active volcano.
Mauna Loa's last eruption was in 1984. It is one of the most active volcanoes on Earth, with eruptions occurring on average every few years.

explosively with abundant pyroclastic material
It is difficult to predict when Mauna Loa will erupt again, as volcanic activity is highly unpredictable. However, it is an active volcano with eruptions occurring approximately every 6 years on average. Monitoring by geologists continues to track any signs of potential activity.
11 times there have been big eruptions
In 1984.
In March of 1984
In the 1984 eruption about 13 people lost their jobs in the mauna loa volcano.
