There is a complex interaction
between earthquakes and volcanic
eruptions. Currently, swarms of
small earthquakes can be used to
predict the possibility of a major
eruption. In general, earthquake
prediction is very difficult. Good
news here - no volcanic threats on
the north side of the Malacca
Straits. Indonesia is quite a
different matter. For the moment,
we'll assume nothing like Toba,
Tomba or Krakatoa will impact
Singapore in the immediate future.
