Will Yellowstone erupt or are we blowing things out of proportion? We may have underestimated Yellowstone’s potential to blow its stack in the future. Chinese scientists have made a disconcerting find ...

A Chinese research team has used high-performance supercomputers to create the most detailed 3D model yet of Yellowstone’s underground magma pathways, suggesting tectonic fractures formed before magma ...

Beneath the geysers and steaming ground of Yellowstone National Park lies one of the most studied, yet still elusive, volcanic systems on Earth. Unlike most volcanoes that form along shifting tectonic ...

A lot of research goes into determining how to best predict the next eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano. Part of this involves pinning down how the magma migration system functions and evolves ...

The magma reservoir of the largest volcanic eruption of the Holocene is refilling. This Kobe University insight on the Kikai caldera in Japan allows us to understand giant caldera volcanoes like ...

We know very little about the processes that lead to a reeruption of supervolcanoes such as the mostly underwater Kikai caldera in Japan (pictured) and are therefore ill-equipped to make predictions.
