Youngest Toba eruption. Coordinates: 2.6845°N 98.8756°E. The Toba eruption (sometimes called the Toba supereruption or the Youngest Toba eruption) was a supervolcanic eruption that occurred about 74,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene [1] at the site of present-day Lake Toba in Sumatra, Indonesia.

didate for the Toba super-eruption, with a plume top height in excess of 45km. These results support the 73:7 0:3ka (1˙) 40Ar=39Ar age estimate for the eruption, with ice core ages of our candidates with the largest magnitude S-MIF at 73.67 and 73.74ka. Finally, since these candidate eruptions occurred on the transition into Greenland Stadial ...
