The eruption of Tambora occurred near the end of the Little Ice Age, exacerbating the background global cooling of the period. [14] This period also occurred during the Dalton Minimum, a period of relatively low solar activity from 1790 to 1830. May 1816 had the lowest Wolf number (0.1) to date since records on solar activity began. It is not ...
Although the Mount Tambora eruption reached a violent climax on 10 April 1815, [5] increased steaming and small phreatic eruptions occurred during the next six months to three years. The ash from the eruption column dispersed around the world and lowered global temperatures in an event sometimes known as the Year Without a Summer in 1816. [6]
This eruption created the Doro Api Toi parasitic cone inside the caldera. [26] Mount Tambora is still active and minor lava domes and flows have been extruded on the caldera floor during the 19th and 20th centuries. [1] The last eruption was recorded in 1967. However, it was a gentle eruption with a VEI of 0, which means it was non-explosive.

Volcanoes in the area are formed because of oceanic crusts and the movement of the shelf itself. [18] Some volcanoes completely form an island, for instance, the Sangeang Api island. Mount Tambora, on Sumbawa island, erupted on 5 April 1815, with a scale 7 on the VEI and is considered the most violent eruption in recorded history. [3]
