Finally consider the island of Krakatoa.

最后不能不提一下喀拉喀托火山岛。

Coincidentally, the masterpiece was inspired by the powerful volcanic eruption of Krakatoa in 1883.

巧合的是，这幅画是画家受1883年印尼喀拉喀托火山大喷发的启发所创作的。

On August 26-27 1883, Krakatoa erupted and continually sent enormous plumes of ash and dust into the sky.

1883年8月26 - 27日，喀拉喀托火山喷发并且激起了冲天的火山灰和碎屑的柱体。

Krakatoa itself was virtually destroyed, although later eruptions have created a new island in the same place.

喀拉喀托火山本身实际上是在大爆炸中被破坏了，尽管后来的爆发在原来的位置构成了一个新的岛屿。

Some of the most violent past eruptions, like Krakatoa in Java, resulted from magma coming in contact with water.

一些以前爆发的火山，如爪哇喀拉喀托火山，就是由岩浆与水接触引起的。

Only one explosion in recent history has made it to 7 on the Volcanic Explosivity Index – 10 times bigger than Krakatoa.

在近代历史上只有一次火山爆发达到了7级的火山爆发强度指数，它的爆炸力是喀拉喀托火山爆发的10倍。

One of the most famous eruptions in history, of the volcano Krakatoa, occurred in the Sunda Strait between the two islands.

历史上一次最有名的火山喷发——喀拉喀托（Krakatoa）火山爆发，就发生在这两个群岛之间的巽他海峡（Sunda Strait）。

Note that large volcanoes, like Pinatubo and Krakatoa, were followed by a fractional — but significant — drop in temperature.

注意到如皮纳图和喀拉喀托等大型火山爆发后是小幅度但很显著的气温下降。

Indonesia is also rich in volcanoes, the most famous being the now vanished Krakatau (Krakatoa), which was located between Sumatra and Java.

印度尼西亚也是火山众多，最著名的是现在已消失的位于苏门答腊和爪哇岛之间的克拉卡托岛。

The so-called Oruanui eruption was the most recent volcanic event to score the maximum 8 on the VEI – 10 times bigger than Tambora, and 100 times bigger than Krakatoa.

在这里的所谓奥努伊（Oruanui）喷发是最近的得分最高的火山事件，是10分的火山爆发指数（VEI）中得了8分，比坦博拉火山爆发要大些，比喀拉喀托火山爆发大100倍。
