Crystals From 1959 May Help Reveal Hidden Volcano Behavior and Predict Future Eruptions
Scientists striving to understand how and when volcanoes might erupt face a challenge: many of the processes take place deep underground in lava tubes churning…

Specially-adapted drones developed by a University College London-led international team have been gathering data from never-before-explored volcanoes that will enable local communities to better forecast…
Researchers in Japan, the US, and China say they have found more concrete evidence of the volcanic cause of the largest mass extinction of life….
International research led by geologists from Curtin University has found that a volcanic province in the Indian Ocean was the world’s most continuously active —…
A new method shows that it’s now possible to estimate the volume of magma stored below volcanoes providing essential information about the potential size of…
In a new study of volcanic processes, Bristol scientists have demonstrated the role nanolites play in the creation of violent eruptions at otherwise ‘calm’ and…
Researchers say cooling 13,000 years ago is coincident with major volcanic eruption. Texas researchers from the University of Houston, Baylor University and Texas A&M University…
The Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission takes us over the Vatnajökull ice cap, in southeast Iceland, in this summery image captured on July 6, 2019. Covering an…
An international team of researchers has found that some of the oldest terrain on Venus, known as tesserae, have layering that seems consistent with volcanic…
The closest analog to modern times is no longer very close, study finds. A new study of an ancient period that is considered the closest…
For the first time, long-term photogrammetic series document the “life cycle” of a volcano. The analyses shows that volcanoes have a kind of memory. Volcanoes…
Scientists have discovered new evidence for active volcanism next door to some of the most densely populated areas of Europe. The study ‘crowd-sourced’ GPS monitoring…
The international journal Earth-Science Reviews published a paper offering an overview of the lava tubes (pyroducts) on Earth, eventually providing an estimate of the (greater)…
Analysis of sediment found in Hall’s Cave shows volcanic eruptions responsible for cooling of Earth around 13,000 years ago. Ancient sediment found in a central…
An international team of volcanologists working on remote islands in the Galápagos Archipelago has found that volcanoes that reliably produce small basaltic lava eruptions hide…
ETH researchers used computer simulations to classify the current activity of corona structures on the surface of Venus. To their surprise, they found a previously…
New 3D model provides evidence that Venus is churning inside. A new study identified 37 recently active volcanic structures on Venus. The study provides some…
A young volcanic island has been growing in the western Pacific Ocean since 2013. Since mid-June 2020, it has been going through a vigorous growth…
