Answer writing challenge: Indonesia’s explosive geology.

By Sneha Shanti|Updated : January 11th, 2019

Dear gradians,

The eruption of Anak Krakatoa caused an underwater landslide and tsunami that struck land last year was in news for the devastations it caused.  Multiple earthquakes hit the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia earlier in September 2018. The phenomenon of earthquake and tsunami is not a once in a blue moon phenomenon for the Indonesians. In this background the question for this week’s challenge is:

The archipelago has been marred with constant earthquakes and tsunamis. What are the reasons behind Indonesia’s explosive geology?

द्वीपसमूह को लगातार भूकंप और सुनामी से जोड़ा गया है। इंडोनेशिया के विस्फोटक भूविज्ञान के पीछे क्या कारण हैं

 

Happy writing!

All the best.
