The year 1816 is known as the Year Without a Summer because of severe climate abnormalities that caused average global temperatures to decrease by 0.4–0.7 °C (0.7–1 °F). [1] Summer temperatures in Europe were the coldest of any on record between 1766 and 2000, [ 2 ] resulting in crop failures and major food shortages across the Northern ...
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]
The following article provides a list of films and television shows which have been partially or wholly set in or shot in Florida. The listed shows span a wide variety of genres and range from shows almost entirely shot and set in one city (e.g., Miami for The Golden Girls and Miami Vice ) to those containing only a small number of scenes shot ...
This eruption created the Doro Api Toi parasitic cone inside the caldera. [26] Mount Tambora is still active and minor lava domes and flows were extruded on the caldera floor during the 19th and 20th centuries. [1] The last eruption was recorded in 1967. It was a gentle eruption with a VEI of 0, which means it was non-explosive.
An unknown volcano erupted so explosively in 1831 that it cooled Earth’s climate. Now, nearly 200 years later, scientists have identified the “mystery volcano.”
Scientists have solved the 200-year-old mystery of the location of a massive volcanic eruption that spewed such a large volume of gases that it blocked sunlight, making the sun appear blue.. The ...

A.D. 79: Mount Vesuvius, Italy. Mount Vesuvius has erupted eight times in the last 17,000 years, most recently in 1944, but the big one was in A.D. 17. One of the most violent eruptions in history ...
