Krakatoa

The worst eruption of Krakatoa occurred in 1883, resulting in major devastation and a massive explosion heard thousands of kilometers away. The eruption caused widespread destruction, triggering tsunamis that killed tens of thousands of people and changing the region's landscape.

the soil makes the soil fertile

no where else to go

stay near family

stay in their hometown

study volcanos

find precious metals

this was my geography hw by the way im not that smart!

You can't live in a volcano. If you're meaning close to it, people lived just like the industrial revolution, only that it changed at August 27 1883.

Volcanic slopes are rich and fertile. Many people lived on the slopes of volcanoes because that is where they could best grow crops. Occasional rumblings from a volcano were considered a small price to pay for the benefits of having bigger and healthier vegetables and crops.

Three interesting facts about Krakatoa are,

1: It is the loudest sound recorded in history.

2:The shockwave traveled around the world 7 times.

3:The painting 'The Scream' was made from krakatoa, because of the red sky in the background.

Yes. Krakatoa is a volcano prone to violent eruptions and it probably will erupt violently again. While it periodically has small eruptions,we might not see another one on the scale of the 1883 eruption for a few thousand years.

there are thousand of Population around the Krakatoa Volcano. i was there with my on eyes

The distance between these two volcanoes is about 6,970 miles.

no it does not

Yes, of course Krakatoa has a pyroclastic flow. Every volcano has an pyroclastic flow, which can travel up to at huge speeds. Krakatoa's pyroclastic flow raced an amazing 200 mph over 20 miles of open sea.

Yes Krakatoa has pyroclastic flows but not all volcanoes produce pyroclastic flows, only Mt. St. Helens type volcanoes usually composed of andesite. Kilauea for example does not produce pyroclastic flows because it is composed of basalt, the lava flows out easily.

After the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883, the surrounding communities had to cope with ash-covered landscapes and tsunamis. They likely used manual labor to clear away ash and debris from their homes and fields. International aid also helped with the recovery efforts, providing resources and support to the affected communities.

The closest village to Krakatoa is Carita, located on the western coast of Java in Indonesia. It serves as a departure point for visitors who want to explore the Krakatoa Archipelago. It is approximately 40 kilometers away from the Krakatoa volcano.

There is no way to predict with certainty if or when Mount Krakatoa will erupt again. It is an active volcano, so there is always a possibility of it erupting in the future. Monitoring by volcanologists can provide some early warning signs, but eruptions can still occur with little warning.

Pluto's diameter is 2374 kilometers. or 1,475 miles. Pluto has about the same amount of land as Russia.

The nearby islands of Java and Sumatra are heavily forested with occasional towns. The small islands that remain of the original Krakatoa are also forested. Some trees grow around the new volcanic island of Anak Krakatau has some trees around the edges but is mostly covered in ash and volcanic rock.

Krakatoa, or Krakatau, is a volcano located near the island of Rakata in western Indonesia. It had a history of violent explosions, but lay dormant for almost 200 years. Then, in May 1883, it started to rumble, with the first major explosion occurring on 26 August 26 1883. The following day, there were three more explosions, with the last one being the most devastating.

The northern two-thirds of the island was completely destroyed by the explosion. Next, the unsupported volcanic chambers which formed the huge underwater caldera collapsed. This significant activity generated gigantic tsunami waves, up to 40m high above sea level. The tsunami waves wiped out hundreds of villages and towns along the coasts of Java and Sumatra, and killed over 36,000 people. Th steamship Berouw was carried 3km inland by the powerful waves and left 10m above sea level, killing its 28 crew in the incident.

The masses of ash, rock and lava formed new islands, while continued eruptions at the volcano since 1927 have built a new island, called Anak Krakatau (child of Krakatoa).

Mount Pinatubo and Mt St Helens are active stratovolcanos.

Mt St Helens 1980 Eruption: Fifty-seven people were killed; 250 homes, 47 bridges, 15 miles (24 km) of railways, and 185 miles (298 km) of highway were destroyed.

Pinatubo 1991 Eruption: Was 10 times larger then Mt St helens 1980 eruption. Over 800 people were killed by the eruption, mostly by roofs collapsing under the weight of accumulated wet ash, a hazard that was greatly exacerbated by the simultaneous arrival of Typhoon Yunya.

The world's loudest volcanic explosion in 1883 occurred in Indonesia when the island of Krakatoa erupted and blew itself apart. The explosion was so powerful that it was heard over 3,000 miles away and caused massive tsunamis that devastated surrounding coastlines.

Yes they have been rebuilt since the horrid one in 1883 but this eruption destroyed many 165 towns and villages

Krakatoa lies in the Sunda Strait, between Java and Sumatra in the Indonesian province of Lampung. It is near the Indonesian island of Rakata.

a least 1,530 degrees

yes because it shows this on all known volcano text books

the last time it erupted was this year some time

there hasn't been a eruption in 2008 yet.
