Apr. 11, 2023 Material left on the seafloor by bronze-age underwater volcanic eruptions is helping researchers better understand the size, hazards and climate impact of their parent eruptions, according to new ...
Feb. 22, 2024 A detailed survey of the volcanic underwater deposits around the Kikai caldera in Japan clarified the deposition mechanisms as well as the event's magnitude. As a result, the research team found ...
July 28, 2021 A new analysis of the 2018 collapse of Kilauea volcano's caldera helps to confirm the reigning scientific paradigm for how friction works on earthquake faults. The model quantifies the ...
Jan. 14, 2022 The dramatic collapse of Indonesia's Anak Krakatau volcano in December 2018 resulted from long-term destabilising processes, and was not triggered by any distinct changes in the magmatic system ...
July 6, 2022 Researchers used a fiber optic cable on the ice cap of an Icelandic subglacial volcano to detect low-frequency volcanic tremor, suggesting this technology could be useful in monitoring other ...
Apr. 8, 2021 The 15-million-year-old Nördlinger Ries is an asteroid impact crater filled with lake sediments. A research team has now discovered a volcanic ash layer in the crater. In addition, they show that ...
June 20, 2023 New research showed that the plume emitted by the Hunga Volcano eruption in 2022 created the highest lightning flash rates ever recorded on Earth, more than any storm ever ...
July 5, 2023 Researchers have optimized a new technique to help forecast how volcanoes will behave, which could save lives and property around the ...
June 9, 2023 The new study used a model of volcano fracturing to interpret patterns of earthquakes and ground uplift, and concluded that parts of the volcano had been stretched nearly to breaking ...
Oct. 26, 2023 The explosion of the underwater volcano Kolumbo in the Aegean Sea in 1650 triggered a destructive tsunami that was described by historical eye witnesses. A group of researchers has now surveyed ...
