Mt
Tambora Trekking Sumbawa island, Indonesia.
Mt. Tambora Sumbawa
A big volcano that erupted in the 19th
century.
The paroxysmal eruption of Mt. Tambora on
the island of Sumbawa in April 181 5 –
despite having triggered a world wide
historic event – is astonishingly neglected
in studies of volcanic activity. The world
wide event referred to was the so-called
"Year without a Summer" - the exceptionally
cold months of 1816. In addition to this,
Mt. Tambora's eruption far-eclipsed in
violence and ejecta the more famous eruption
of Krakatau (Krakatoa) in 1883, which also
had an impact on the world's weather.
Though disappointing, the reason for part of
this neglect is not hard to find. There
exist few contemporary records of the
eruption and what there is has seen little
reprinting in modern works. Nonetheless,
enough data is now available that a more
definitive study can and should be
undertaken. The intent of this posting is to
synthesize and integrate what is available
and hopefully inspire further investigation.
I, M SUNNY RED JACKET WE ARE AT SUMMIT OF Mt
TAMBORA, i DO GUIDE TO Mt TAMBORA FOR Mr
,Alex Cohan USA and Ms,Natalie at mt Tambora
on April 2007 Great Mountain This educated
complacency abruptly shattered on April 10.
As if rebuking their hubris, as the
afternoon came, suddenly the roar and
detonations like blasting gravel and cannon
renwed, even stronger than before, and this
time a truly menacing and darkened cloud of
ash billowed over from the east. This time
it was even greater than before, so that the
sun was almost blotted out. In the eastern
part of Java, the situation was even more
severe. At Solo and Rembang some reported
small and continuous earthquakes, and the
explosions were tremendous, booming
frequently through the 11th with such
violence as to shake the houses noticeably.
And still the might of the detonations only
increased, and the . Once again the priests
sang with joy that liberation was at hand,
and even some of the Europeans now felt fear
and concern. What was happening? None of the
suspected volcanoes were known to be in
eruption, and yet almost 2,500 miles of
island chain was being rocked by cataclysmic
quakes. Not a few must have contemplated the
fate of Pompeii and Herculaneum---buried by
Vesuvius in AD. 79 – but there was little
anyone could do but wait. These were the
conditions on Java and neighboring islands
as dusk approached on April 10. But for
those living on the peninsula upon which
Tambora stood, matters would grow much worse
this night. For in the late afternoon of the
10th Mt. Tambora in fact entered paroxysmal
eruption and would inflict a devastation
that would leave precious few survivors to
tell the tale.
