Zavaritski Caldera (Russian: Вулкан Заварицкого, Vulkan Zavaritskogo) is a caldera located in the central part of Simushir Island, Kuril Islands, Russia. Lake Biryuzovoe partially fills the youngest of three nested calderas on the volcano.
The volcano is named after Alexander Nikolayevich Zavaritski, scientist of the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union.
In May 2023, a team led by volcanologist William Hutchison found that ice cores from Greenland and elsewhere elsewhere provided geochemical clues pinpointing the Zavaritski island volcano responsible for a climate-altering eruption in 1831.
