July 7, 2021 —Why magma flowed along a curved pathway during the 2018 eruption of a Galapagos volcano is explained by a new ...
June 9, 2023 —The new study used a model of volcano fracturing to interpret patterns of earthquakes and ground uplift, and concluded that parts of the volcano had been stretched nearly to breaking ...
Oct. 16, 2020 —An international study has discovered how volcanoes experience stress. The study has implications for how the world might be better protected against future volcano ...
Sep. 14, 2021 —Lava samples have revealed a new truth about the geological make-up of the Earth's crust and could have implications for volcanic eruption early warning systems, a new study has ...
Oct. 12, 2021 —The more water is dissolved in the magma, the greater the risk that a volcano will explode. A new study now shows that this simple rule is only partially true. Paradoxically, high water content ...
Mar. 17, 2021 —What would a volcano - and its lava flows - look like on a planetary body made primarily of metal? A pilot study offers insights into ferrovolcanism that could help scientists interpret landscape ...
Apr. 21, 2021 —Volcanic eruptions deep in our oceans are capable of extremely powerful releases of energy, at a rate high enough to power the whole of the United States, according to new ...
Dec. 3, 2020 —A small group of volcanic islands in Alaska's Aleutian chain might be part of a single, undiscovered giant volcano, say scientists. If the researchers' suspicions are correct, the newfound ...
Apr. 7, 2021 —The properties of the magma inside a volcano affect how an eruption will play out. In particular, the viscosity of this molten rock is a major factor in influencing how hazardous an eruption could be ...
Nov. 21, 2022 —Volcanic eruptions are dangerous and difficult to predict. A team has found that the ratio of atoms in specific gases released from volcanic fumaroles (gaps in the Earth's surface) can provide ...
