New research suggests Yellowstone's magma may be closer to the surface than previously believed, residing in shallow "magma ...

A new geodynamic model is reshaping how scientists understand supervolcanoes, revealing that their magma systems may be far ...

For decades, the leading explanation for Yellowstone’s explosive volcanic history has centered on a plume of superheated rock ...

A new model of Yellowstone’s magma system suggests it is fueled by melts from the shallow mantle, guided by tectonic forces, ...

A gigantic bulge in the north rim of the Yellowstone caldera is the latest sign of volcanic activity in the national park. Geologists call this type of bulge “volcanic uplift.” It’s often caused by ...

What is a super eruption and how did they create the geology of Yellowstone? Where is the world's largest, most explosive, and most unusual volcano? It's Yellowstone National Park. The Yellowstone ...

The magma reservoir of the largest volcanic eruption of the Holocene is refilling. This Kobe University insight on the Kikai caldera in Japan allows us to understand giant caldera volcanoes like ...

We know very little about the processes that lead to a reeruption of supervolcanoes such as the mostly underwater Kikai caldera in Japan (pictured) and are therefore ill-equipped to make predictions.

Far beneath the ocean near Japan, scientists have discovered that the magma system linked to the most powerful eruption of the Holocene is slowly rebuilding. By using seismic imaging, researchers ...
