However, there are no signs of "increased volcanic unrest" at the park. The supervolcano at Yellowstone National Park has substantially more magma reservoir under the caldera than scientists ...

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 ...

The magma cap is critical for preventing eruptions at Yellowstone. Geoscientists have discovered a magma cap at Yellowstone National Park that is likely playing a critical role in preventing a massive ...

Researchers from Rice University imaged the magma underneath Yellowstone and showed how it vents pressure, reducing the likelihood of a massive eruption anytime soon. Every day, like clockwork, ...

More liquid magma lurks beneath the Yellowstone supervolcano than scientists once thought. But don’t panic: That amount of magma, researchers say, is still nowhere near enough to portend an eruption ...

The cap, which acts like a lid, was discovered 3.8 kilometers under the park’s surface Jonathan Newton / The Washington Post via Getty Scientists have discovered a magma cap under the surface of ...

When astronomers first cataloged some of the closest orbiting rocky exoplanets, they wrote them off as bare, airless cinders, ...
