Since silicic magmas are colder and goopier than mafic magmas, dissolved gases have a harder time venting out of them. This ...

Site of half the world's active geysers and about the same size as Cyprus, Yellowstone National Park's scenery and wildlife make it one of the biggest draws for tourists in the US. But those famous ...

In its first nine years, Genesis has stayed out of the world of performance cars. That changed with the announcement of the ambitious Magma program in March, a plan to debut performance variants of ...

How do volcanoes work? What happens beneath their surface? What causes the vibrations—known as tremor—that occur when magma or gases move upward through a volcano's conduits? Professor Dr. Miriam ...

Scientists have long assumed that, like rocky planets such as Earth, sub-Neptunes begin with molten magma oceans. Their thick ...

Long-quiet volcanoes in the Cascades region of the Pacific Northwest are still underpinned by large reservoirs of magma, new research finds. The findings have implications for monitoring volcanoes ...

Geoscientists discovered a magma cap acting as a "lid" 2.4 miles beneath Yellowstone. This magma cap traps heat and pressure, but also allows gas to vent, reducing eruption risk. Seismic imaging and ...

Scientists have warned one of the world's supervolcanoes is awakening as seismic activity around the volcano has skyrocketed – more than 3,000 earthquakes have been recorded near the volcano in the ...
