Forty year after the main
explosion, in 1927, volcanic activity was seen in the sea covering the old
caldera, between the sites of the two northernmost former volcanoes of Krakatau, where the greatest activity had occurred at the
time of the cataclysm. A series of eruption 185 m below the surface of the sea
resulted in the emergence of three new islands, one after the other. They were
all son destroyed by surf. A fourth emerged from the sea on August 12th 1930.
It remained above water, and was aptly named Anak Krakatau (child of Krakatau)
This young and active volcano has been growing around 6 feet a year and still
continues doing so. It grew by the accumulation of ash, and suffered a
devastating eruption in 1952, and other very destructive one in 1971. It is now
300 m high and 5 Km in diameter, and is still active spurting fire and cinder,
this like moonlike landscape. It is lonely volcanic island in the middle of the
sea. The northeast coast, north foreland and east foreland are now vegetated;
the succession of vegetation is still at an early stage, Casuarinas
equisetifolia (cemara) being the dominant tree.
