超级火山将会包括那些会释放1000立方公里材料的火山爆发。
Such "supervolcanoes" would include eruptions that release more than 1000 cubic kilometres of material.
奥努伊火山爆发就可能属于这一类，但是一个更有把握超级火山的候选者是苏门答腊岛的多巴火山爆炸。 约在70 000年以前，多巴火山在爆发时释放了2800立方公里的灼热的岩石、火山灰和尘埃。
The Oruanui eruption probably managed that, but a surer candidate is Sumatra's Toba blast, which released 2800 cubic kilometres of hot rock, ash and dust about 70,000 years ago.
