According to new research, the active volcano that sits west of Naples has a "tuff" layer about two miles beneath the surface ...

Figure 2: Mid-ocean-ridge magma chambers in three dimensions ... as predicted by the focused magma supply model. Their observations cannot rule out focused flow in the mantle, with melt migration ...

The world's "sleeping giants" can wake up much quicker than thought, according to a new volcano model. Scientists believe the magma chambers—or reservoirs of molten rock—under dormant ...

The classic model argues that as the magma chamber fills, the larger volume pushes simply the overlying ground up. An alternative model suggests that hot fluids from the magma heat the rock and a ...

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 ...

This model was published in June – also in the journal Nature Geoscience – and describes a system made up of a magma chamber in the upper crust that is connected with further chambers in the ...

To do so, they used a thermomechanical magma chamber model and simulated a shrinking West Antarctic Ice Sheet through ...

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 ...

According to Phys.org, the authors analyzed these “internal dynamics” by designing a thermomechanical magma chamber model and simulated various pressure decreases caused by deglaciation.

Rather than evoking a model where magma has to stop and start ... up from depth into a deep and shallow reservoir. Tiered magma chamber models like this have been suggested before, but it is ...
