Choice A is the best answer. The scientists believe the volcano Samalas, located in Indonesia, was most likely the medieval volcanic eruption (lines 33-35,"Volcanologist... Samalas"). The eruption likely occurred near the equator because an equatorial location is "consistent with the apparent climate impacts" the scientists observed (lines 61-67,"It's... source").
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because the scientists do not suggest that the medieval volcanic eruption was located in the Arctic region, the Antarctic region, or Ecuador.
