The most devastating of the eruptions occurred in . 79, destroying the cities of Pompeii andHerculaneum.•Indonesia's Krakatoa has erupted several times, with the last and most devastating eruption in 1883. The resulting tsunami killed more than 36,000 people in the area of Java and Sumatra. New islands were formed by the huge amount of lava and ash and debris scattered as far away as Madagascar. The sound of the explosion was heard as far away as Perth, Australia (nearly 2000 mi/3100 km), and Rodrigues, near Mauritius (approximately 3000 mi/4800 km).•In 1963, Mount Agung in Bali erupted, taking the lives of some 1,100 people. •On May 18, 1980, after more than 100 years of dormancy, Mount St. Helens erupted in Washington. The rock debris carried by a lateral blast of Mount St.Helens traveled as fast as 250 mi/hr (402 km/hr). Fifty-eight people werekilled and there was a resulting $ billion in damages.•The 1992 eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines Islands caused 342 deaths; more than 250,000 people had to be evacuated. Vast amounts ofaerosols were spewed into the stratosphere, forming a global layer of sulfuric acid haze that lasted for several months. Global temperatures dropped byabout degrees F (0.5 C).。
