Earthquakes were recorded in the 1950s, 1970s and 1980s, followed by a measurable ground uplift. Today we know that the magma chamber of the Campi Flegrei is located at a depth of 1.8 miles below ...
The effects of climate change could awaken hundreds of volcanoes worldwide – which in turn could worsen the effects of ...
This magma chamber beneath Ardnamurchan was up to 6 km long and has the shape of an elongate saucer. "These types of magma chambers are known to exist for example within volcanoes in Iceland have ...
"The magma chamber of a supervolcano does not resemble a pot of soup that can boil over at any time and at the slightest provocation," Bachmann explains. ... Numerical model supports mineral analyses.
Until now it was thought that once a volcano's magma chamber had cooled down it remained dormant for centuries before it could be remobilized by fresh magma. A theoretical model developed by Alain ...
If you ever want your research to be picked up by the popular press, you pretty much need to publish in the journal Science. It (along with Nature) are seen as the Premier League of scientific ...
Mount St. Helens erupted intermittently between 2004 and 2008. New images of the deep-lying magma chambers beneath the volcano may help scientist better predict the next big eruption.
Yellowstone Caldera Chronicles is a weekly column written by scientists and collaborators of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory. This week's contribution is from Madison Myers, assistant ...

ETH researchers show that magma chambers under supervolcanoes are more like soggy sponges than reservoirs of molten rock. Before a volcano of this kind erupts, such mush must slowly be reactivated ...
