Will Tonga’s volcanic eruption make our country colder? Will there be a "year without summer"?

It is inevitable that volcanic eruptions will have an impact on the ecological environment, but the degree of impact varies. As for climate cooling or even the occurrence of a "year without summer", this Tonga volcanic eruption is far from enough. , and the impact on our country is negligible. As an island country located deep in the ocean, its ability to resist natural disasters is extremely weak. In particular, the eruption of volcanoes was relatively powerful, which caused the submarine optical cables that connected Tonga to the outside world to break, making it impossible for the public to have a clear understanding of the local disaster situation. Intuitive understanding, but judging from some fragmented information, this volcanic eruption still caused a lot of damage to Tonga.

The so-called "year without summer" refers to the eruption of Tambora volcano in Indonesia in 1815. Its severity directly caused extremely abnormal weather in the northern hemisphere the following year, especially in Europe, North America and even Asia. Low temperatures prevailed throughout the summer, and the global temperature at that time also dropped by 0.4-0.7 degrees. It is said to be the coldest year in the northern hemisphere since 1400, so it is also known as the "Year Without Summer". Of course, the Tonga volcanic eruption this time was not that serious. my country and Tonga are far away. From a theoretical perspective, it will not have a substantial impact, and there is no talk of cooling.

Although it is not as severe as the Indonesian volcanic eruption in 1815, there is still no clear conclusion as to whether this eruption of Tonga volcano will have subsequent chain reactions. After all, the international community still cannot reconcile with Tonga. Without establishing direct contact within the country, it is naturally impossible to judge the status of the volcano. In addition, we still need to pay real-time attention to the future trends of the Tonga volcano from a scientific perspective, and only then can we draw objective and rational conclusions about the possible impacts.

The Tonga volcano erupted, and other countries such as Japan, the United States, Peru and Fiji were also affected. It was mainly reflected in the occurrence of abnormal waves of varying degrees in coastal cities. Japan even sounded a tsunami warning for a time. Although In the end, it was a false alarm, but it was enough to show that the Tonga volcano eruption was relatively serious. As a peculiar geological phenomenon, the destructive power of volcanic eruptions is unpredictable. Even if no substantial damage is seen in a short period of time, if eruptions continue to be active in the future, the global ecology will be affected. It is difficult to predict whether it will be affected.
