A volcano in Ethiopia erupted for the first time in nearly 12,000 years, sending clouds of thick smoke 14 kilometres into the sky and over the Red Sea. Satellite imagery captured by NASA shows the ...

Scientists have uncovered a long-missing piece of the volcanic puzzle: rising magma doesn’t just form explosive gas bubbles when pressure drops—it can do so simply by being sheared and “kneaded” ...

The explosiveness of a volcanic eruption depends on how many gas bubbles form in the magma—and when. Until now, it was thought that gas bubbles were formed primarily when the ambient pressure dropped ...

In a new study, researchers show that gas bubbles can form in the rising magma not only due to a drop in pressure but also due to shear forces. If these gas bubbles grow in the volcanic vent early on ...

A buzzy headline has started making the rounds online, claiming there is an increase in seismic activity on Mount Rainier, but seismologists in the Northwest say those claims are blowing smoke. On ...
