1815 Eruption of Mount Tambora
In 1815, the volcano Mount Tambora on the island of Sumbawa in the Dutch East Indies erupted in the most explosive volcanic eruption in human history. The explosion affected the world's climate, changing history in surprising ways. The History Guy recalls the forgotten history of the year without a summer.

The Notorious 1815 Eruption of Mount Tambora
#tambora #indonesia #sumbawa
The 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora was one of the most powerful and destructive volcanic events in recorded history. Located on the island of Sumbawa in the Dutch East Indies (present-day Indonesia), Mount Tambora had been dormant for several centuries before it erupted in April 1815. This cataclysmic event reached a 7 on the Volcanic Explosivity Index, making it a super-colossal eruption.
The eruption was heard as far as 2,600 kilometers away, and it hurled ash and debris up to 43 kilometers into the atmosphere. The immediate effects were devastating, with a death toll estimated to be around 71,000 people, many of whom died from the ensuing famine and disease due to the destruction of agricultural production in the region. The volcanic ash spread across the...

Why the Year 1816 Was the Year Without Summer
The early 1800s proved to be an interesting time. This period experienced one of the earliest recorded instances of global climate change. In addition, the War of 1812 ended; Napoleon Bonaparte lost at Waterloo; and Otto von Bismarck was born. The year 1816, in particular, stands out as being almost as tragic as 536 CE.
Known as the "Year Without a Summer," 1816 negatively impacted the entire world, from the most poverty-stricken farmer in China to Thomas Jefferson. In 1815, Mount Tambora erupted, and its aftermath spurred droughts, crop failure, and endless winter.

Journey to the heart of a volcano
Mount Tambora is an active volcano on the island of Sumbawa in Indonesia, whose eruption in 1815 had a massive impact on the Earth’s climate for several years afterwards. SCMP photographer Antony Dickson hiked to the caldera at the foot of the volcano to capture this stunning video footage of its unusual natural environment.

Mt. Tambora & The Year Without a Summer - Dalton Grand Solar Minimum [DW]
When the Tambora volcano erupted in Indonesia some 200 years ago during the Dalton Grand Solar Minimum, around 100,000 people perished. But the disaster was not over. The eruption’s ash cloud would cause crop failures, epidemics and civil disturbances across the northern hemisphere, in what was known as the "Year Without a Summer."
Around 100,000 people died on the Indonesian island of Sumbawa when the Tambora volcano erupted at the beginning of April 1815. But their deaths were just the first chapter in this catastrophe. The eruption column rose to an altitude of more than 40 kilometers, spreading a shroud of smoke and ash throughout the stratosphere. The year 1816 has gone down in history as the "year without a summer." That year, the volcanic fallout blocked the sun’s rays, and rain an...

Tambora Volcano: The Eruption That Changed the World
This documentary delves into the cataclysmic eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815, the most powerful volcanic event in recorded history. Located in Indonesia, Tambora’s eruption unleashed unparalleled destruction, claiming tens of thousands of lives and spewing massive amounts of ash and gas into the atmosphere.
The film explores the global aftermath of the eruption, known as the "Year Without a Summer." Crops failed, temperatures plummeted, and widespread famine and disease struck continents far from Tambora’s shores. These events had profound social, cultural, and even artistic impacts, influencing literature, science, and geopolitics.
A story of devastation and resilience, this documentary provides a compelling look at how one volcanic eruption reshaped the course of history.

#tambora #indonesia #sumbawa
The 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora was one of the most powerful and destructive volcanic events in recorded history. Located on the island of Sumbawa in the Dutch East Indies (present-day Indonesia), Mount Tambora had been dormant for several centuries before it erupted in April 1815. This cataclysmic event reached a 7 on the Volcanic Explosivity Index, making it a super-colossal eruption.
The eruption was heard as far as 2,600 kilometers away, and it hurled ash and debris up to 43 kilometers into the atmosphere. The immediate effects were devastating, with a death toll estimated to be around 71,000 people, many of whom died from the ensuing famine and disease due to the destruction of agricultural production in the region. The volcanic ash spread across the world, affecting climate conditions globally.
The following year, 1816, became known as "the Year Without a Summer" due to the global cooling caused by volcanic ash in the atmosphere blocking sunlight. This led to widespread crop failures and food shortages in the Northern Hemisphere. The social impact of the eruption and the climate changes it induced were far-reaching, contributing to several historical events, including migration patterns in Europe and North America, the rise of the Cholera pandemic, and even inspiring literary works like Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein," which she wrote during the gloomy summer of 1816. The Tambora event remains a benchmark for the study of volcanic eruptions and their effects on climate and society.

When the Tambora volcano erupted in Indonesia some 200 years ago during the Dalton Grand Solar Minimum, around 100,000 people perished. But the disaster was not over. The eruption’s ash cloud would cause crop failures, epidemics and civil disturbances across the northern hemisphere, in what was known as the "Year Without a Summer."
Around 100,000 people died on the Indonesian island of Sumbawa when the Tambora volcano erupted at the beginning of April 1815. But their deaths were just the first chapter in this catastrophe. The eruption column rose to an altitude of more than 40 kilometers, spreading a shroud of smoke and ash throughout the stratosphere. The year 1816 has gone down in history as the "year without a summer." That year, the volcanic fallout blocked the sun’s rays, and rain and cold caused dramatic crop failures across the northern hemisphere. Famine stalked large parts of Europe and hundreds of thousands starved to death or were struck down by fatal diseases. Many set sail for the USA in the hope of finding a better life - the first major wave of emigration of the 19th Century - and many who could not afford to emigrate rebelled against the system. In England, the Corn Laws, which placed heavy taxes on grain, sparked massive riots in London and other major cities. The effects of the eruption endured for decades as climatic turbulence in India paved the way for the first global cholera pandemic, which led to the deaths of millions of people. The documentary examines the global consequences of this devastating natural disaster and talks to scientists who explain how this eruption changed the course of world history.

This documentary delves into the cataclysmic eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815, the most powerful volcanic event in recorded history. Located in Indonesia, Tambora’s eruption unleashed unparalleled destruction, claiming tens of thousands of lives and spewing massive amounts of ash and gas into the atmosphere.
The film explores the global aftermath of the eruption, known as the "Year Without a Summer." Crops failed, temperatures plummeted, and widespread famine and disease struck continents far from Tambora’s shores. These events had profound social, cultural, and even artistic impacts, influencing literature, science, and geopolitics.
A story of devastation and resilience, this documentary provides a compelling look at how one volcanic eruption reshaped the course of history.
