Dec. 13, 2021 —A new study has found that the minerology of the rocks that a meteorite hits, rather than the size of the impact, determines how deadly an impact it will ...
June 24, 2021 —Indonesia's volcanoes are among the world's most dangerous. Why? Through chemical analyses of tiny minerals in lava from Bali and Java, researchers have found new clues. They now understand ...
Sep. 3, 2021 —Scientists have studied an ancient supervolcano in Indonesia and found such volcanoes remain active and hazardous for thousands of years after a super-eruption, prompting the need for a rethink of ...

Aug. 3, 2022 —Researchers have discovered that super-eruptions occur when huge accumulations of magma deep in the Earth's crust, formed over millions of years, move rapidly to the surface disrupting ...
Sep. 22, 2022 —The traditional hypothesis about totally molten magma chambers (key to volcanic activity) may just be correct, despite some recent studies claiming otherwise. Wits researchers have compelling ...
Aug. 3, 2021 —Recently, a pair of NASA studies identified the most likely locations to find pieces of the Moon's mantle on the surface, providing a map for future lunar sample return missions such as those ...
Jan. 23, 2021 —Conditions inside the Shiveluch volcano include roughly 10%-14% water by weight (wt%), according to new research. Most volcanoes have less than 1% water. For subduction zone volcanoes, the average is ...
May 26, 2022 —The percentage of water in arc volcanoes, which form above subduction zones, may be far more than many previous studies have calculated. This increased amount of water has broad implications for ...
