If a gigaton nuke were exploded a few hundred feet above ground level, what sort of damage would it do? The US already has the technology to make 1GT+ nukes. Does anyone know any website/tool to calculate the fallout of nukes?

Apparently, a 1GT explosion is 5 times as powerful as the eruption of Mount Krakatoa:
