A major discovery beneath Yellowstone National Park has revealed a magma cap located nearly 2.4 miles below the surface, which could help prevent a massive volcanic eruption. Using advanced seismic ...

Learn how stress inside a volcano can make gas bubbles form early, helping explain why some eruptions stay quiet instead of exploding.

Scientists have discovered that shear forces inside rising magma can create gas bubbles long before pressure drops occur. The intensity of a volcanic eruption is shaped by how many gas bubbles develop ...

Mount Semeru erupted again today, its 7th time this week, reaching Level III (Alert). PVMBG warns against activity near Besuk ...

A volcanic eruption in southwest Iceland has prompted evacuations, including at nearby tourist sites like the Blue Lagoon. The Sundhnukur volcano, located on the Reykjanes Peninsula, began erupting ...

In a new study, researchers show that gas bubbles can form in the rising magma not only due to a drop in pressure but also due to shear forces. If these gas bubbles grow in the volcanic vent early on ...

HONOLULU — Hawaii's Kilauea volcano resumed erupting Friday by shooting an arc of lava 100 feet (30 meters) into the air and across a section of its summit crater floor. It was Kilauea's 31st display ...

HONOLULU — Lava shoots high into the sky. Molten rock erupts from two vents simultaneously. The nighttime sky glows red and orange, reflecting the lava oozing across a summit crater. Scientists expect ...

HONOLULU (AP) — Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano has been shooting lava from its summit crater about once a week since late last year, delighting residents, visitors and online viewers alike with a firehose ...
