Never underestimate the Yellowstone supervolcano. It is among the most amazing and terrifying natural occurrences. Several cities may fit inside Yellowstone’s shallower section of its two-step magma ...

That’s because Yellowstone National Park is actually on the site of a supervolcano ... what they discovered was an intricate maze of magma reservoirs deep under the Earth’s crust.

Are there any other magma systems in the world? Yellowstone is not singular in having massive magma systems. For example, Indonesia's supervolcano Toba erupted around 74,000 years ago, causing ...

Yellowstone's magma system shows new activity, with the northeast sector possibly hosting future volcanic activity.

Scientists have assessed Yellowstone's chances of eruption by measuring electronic currents flowing deep within the Earth ...

Yellowstone ... deeper magma body, likely composed of basalt — Earth’s most primitive magma type and the heat engine that helps to generate and sustain the shallower rhyolite magma chamber.

The Yellowstone super-volcano is unlikely to erupt anytime soon ... This data allows the team to map the locations of magma pools beneath Yellowstone's surface. These pools of molten rock are ...

Scientists at the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory made an important discovery that pointed to fundamental changes within the supervolcano system. Scientific experts have reevaluated regional stability ...

The geophysical techniques that allow us to image the magma beneath Yellowstone ― as in a recent study that provided a view of multiple separate magma reservoirs ― work similarly. These ...

A new study highlights how life possibly evolved prior to and during the rise of Earth’s oxygenated atmosphere.

That is almost double the previous estimate of nine percent. Further, the magma reservoirs in the Yellowstone supervolcano are expected to reach much lower depths. Super volcanos like that under ...
