Belongs here: a discrete eruption event or a standing volcanic system, carrying a live in-discipline link to Volcanology as its primary process even where a secondary climatic effect, such as global cooling, is also attached. Does not belong here: an earthquake or its tsunami, held under Seismology, even where a submarine landslide or similar secondary event is involved.Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)BrowseCompareSelect all 251257 Samalas EruptionVolcanology3 links1600 Huaynaputina EruptionVolcanology1 link1815 Eruption of Mount TamboraVolcanology5 links1883 Eruption of KrakatoaVolcanology4 links1902 Eruption of Mount PeleeVolcanology2 links1912 Eruption of NovaruptaVolcanology1 link1963-1964 Eruption of Mount AgungVolcanology1 link1980 Eruption of Mount St. HelensVolcanology4 links1982 Eruption of El ChichonVolcanology1 link1991 Eruption of Mount PinatuboVolcanology4 links1991 Eruption of Mount UnzenVolcanology1 link2010 Eyjafjallajokull EruptionVolcanology1 link2018 Lower Puna EruptionVolcanology2 links2022 Eruption of Hunga TongaVolcanology1 linkArmero TragedyVolcanology2 linksBishop's RingVolcanology1 linkEruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 ADVolcanology3 linksGeyserVolcanology4 linksLaacher See EruptionVolcanology1 linkLaki Eruption, 1783-1784Volcanology3 linksLimnic EruptionVolcanology1 linkMinoan Eruption of TheraVolcanology1 linkToba EruptionVolcanology1 linkVolcanoVolcanology8 linksYellowstone CalderaVolcanology3 linksComments (0)No comments yet.
