Mount Tambora, a large stratovolcano erupted with a VEI measurement of 7.

一座巨大的层状火山，坦博拉火山爆发了，VEI等级为7级。

But by this time Tambora's effects were already being felt.

而火山喷发所产生的影响，这时候人们早巳经感觉到了。

The explosion of Mt. Tambora sent volcanic ash kilometers up into the sky, destroying crops and burying entire villages.

坦博拉火山的爆发使火山灰飞到了上千米的高空，摧毁农作物并掩埋整个村庄。

If Yellowstone erupts again, it could eject about 10 times more material than Mount Tambora.

如果黄石公园再次喷发，它喷出的物质可能是坦博拉火山的 10 倍左右。

To put this into perspective, the largest eruption on record, Mount Tambora happened in 1815 on the Indonesian island of Sumbawa.

从长远来看，有史以来最大的火山爆发发生在 1815 年印度尼西亚松巴哇岛的坦博拉火山。

Then one evening, it happened Shelley was lying awake in bed listening to the Tambora caused storms howling over the lake.

后来有一天晚上，雪莱躺在床上醒着听坦博拉火山在湖面上咆哮。

In 1815, a sudden blast removed the top 1,280 meters of Mount Tambora in Indonesia.

在 1815 年，一次突然的喷发轰掉了 MTI 火山顶部 1 280 米的山体。

The biggest volcanic explosion in recent history was the 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia.

近代历史上最大的火山爆发是 1815 年印度尼西亚坦博拉火山的喷发。

Mount Tambora was a 4300m high mountain until it exploded in 1815 and released 400 times more energy than the Tsar Bomba.

坦博拉火山曾是高达四千三百米的高山，直到它在1815年喷发前为止，当时所释放出的能量比沙皇炸弹多四百倍。

On the volcanic explosivity index, the 1815 eruption of Mt. Tambora earned the highest ranking ever recorded with a VEI 7 classification.

根据火山爆发性指数，1815 年坦博拉火山的爆发以 7 级火山爆发指数获有史以来的最高排名。

On an island in present-day Indonesia, Mount Tambora erupts with a boom that can be heard over 2,000 kilometers away.

在今天印度尼西亚的一个岛屿上，坦博拉火山喷发时发出的轰鸣声在 2,000 多公里外都能听到。

But there's reason to believe they might work, not least because of natural events like the eruption of Tambora.

但有理由相信它们可能会起作用，尤其是因为坦博拉火山喷发等自然事件。

Ascending high into the atmosphere, Tambora's emissions spread across the globe, blotting out the sun for almost an entire year.

上升到大气层的高处， 坦博拉的排放物遍布全球，遮蔽了几乎整整一年的阳光。

One country's solar radiation management might be another country's unnatural disaster, causing extreme weather or crop failures like those following Tambora's eruption.

一个国家的太阳辐射管理可能是另一个国家的非自然灾害，导致极端天气或农作物歉收， 就像坦博拉火山爆发后发生的那样。

The top two most powerful volcanic eruptions ever in recorded human history both took place in Indonesia at Krakatoa in 1883 and in Mount Tambora in 1815.

人类历史上最严重的两次火山爆发分别发生在 1883 年的印度尼西亚喀拉喀托火山和 1815 年的坦博拉火山。

From Indonesia: Climate models have more firmly connected a record-setting cold European summer in 1816 to the previous year's eruption of Indonesia's Mount Tambora, which injected sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere and caused widespread surface cooling.

来自印度尼西亚：气候模型更牢固地将 1816 年创纪录的寒冷欧洲夏季与前一年印度尼西亚坦博拉火山的喷发联系起来，后者将二氧化硫注入大气并导致大面积地表降温。
