One of the Pacific Ocean’s lesser-known volcanoes will blow its vent in the coming months, causing 10,000 earthquakes in one day. Here’s what scientists are saying.
Sudden changes in pressure within magma-filled cracks and channels cause long-period (LP) events. LP events are volcano-related earthquakes that are lower in frequency than volcano-tectonic (VT ...
Pressure from a pool of magma has just cracked solid rock, creating a volcano-tectonic (VT) event. This type of quake produces relatively high-frequency shaking, usually between one and five ...
“The instrument is, so to speak, the heart of the solar telescope, which is now finally beating at its final destination,” ...
The Institut für Sonnenphysik (KIS) located in Freiburg, Germany, has installed a high-precision measuring instrument for the ...
For communities living in the shadow of a volcano, early warning systems are a lifeline—but mistrust in these warnings can ...
Although the Inouye Solar Telescope began operating from its perch on the Hawaiian volcano Haleakala in 2022 ... That ...
The intense pressure involved can create new magma which then rises to the surface through volcanic vents in explosive eruptions. When magma erupts from a volcano it is called lava. This mixture ...
According to the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO), at least 30 small quakes, some forming “swarms”, were recorded, indicating rising magma beneath the surface and increased pressure inside the ...
