Krakatoa is one of many volcanoes located along an area around the Pacific basin where two huge tectonic plates meet. These two plates, the Indo-Australian and the Eurasian, constantly collide, resulting in much volcanic activity. This area is known by geologists as the Ring of Fire.
The actual Indonesian name for the volcano is "Krakatau". It is widely believed that the accepted spelling resulted from a typing error made by the British press when they reported the 1883 eruption.
The 1883 eruption of Krakatoa was one of the deadliest natural disasters in history. It’s thought to have caused the deaths of over 36,000 people, cooled the summer temperatures of the northern hemisphere by 0.3°C, and sparked a renewed interest in volcanology.
