Mount Tambora




 Geography Project
     By : Cindy
   Mount Tambora is an active
              stratovolcano, also known as a
              composite volcano, on the island of
              Sumbawa, Indonesia.




*A stratovolcano, is a tall, conical volcano built up by many layers (strata)
of hardened lava, tephra, pumice, and volcanic ash .Stratovolcanoes are
characterized by a steep profile and periodic, explosive eruptions and quiet
eruptions. The lava that flows from stratovolcanoes typically cools and
hardens before spreading far due to high viscosity.
Latitude: 8° 15" S
Longitude: 118° E
How was Mount Tambora
              formed
   It was formed by the active
    subduction zone beneath it which
    raised the mountain as high as
    4,300m making it one of the tallest
    peaks in the Indonesian archipelago.
1815 ERUPTION
 The eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815 is
  noted to be one of the most powerful
  eruptions in historic times, Tambora
  caused tsunamis and days of darkness.It
  also caused the temperature to decrease
  ,and that year it was called the Year
  Without Summer.
 The volcanic eruption claimed as many
  as 117,000 lives in Indonesia alone, and
  subsequently killed hundreds of
  thousands of people across the Northern
  Hemisphere.
Is Mount Tambora still active?

 Scientific experiments have indicated
  that Tambora had been dormant for
  5,000 years but magma had been
  building up in the chamber. This build-
  up had reached its limit in 1815(what was
  showed just know).
 Mount Tambora is still active. Minor lava
  domes and flows have been extruded on
  the caldera floor during the 19th and
  20th centuries. The last eruption was
  recorded in 1967. However, it was a very
  small, non-explosive eruption
Benefits

 There is a lot of gold and copper mine
  which is good for mining business.
 The beaches there offer great surfing
  and diving places with lots of marine
  life.
 And products produced by
  inhabitants.
