Climate change could potentially awaken hundreds of dormant volcanoes worldwide, according to recent models studying ...

The effects of climate change could awaken hundreds of volcanoes worldwide – which in turn could worsen the effects of ...

Scientists created a simulation showing that early Earth still retained chemical traces of its igneous youth, 4.5 billion years ago.

The sudden loss of weight from the rapidly melting ice sheet as the last Ice Age ended caused a relaxation of the crust and an expansion of gases in the magma. The pressure led to explosive volcanic ...

Learn about how volcanoes are formed and the ways they erupt Chiara Maria Petrone, Roberto Scandone, and Alex Whittaker On ...

And every volcanic eruption releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, triggering a gnarly environmental feedback loop.

Colossal volcanic eruptions like the kind that may have obliterated the dinosaurs more than 65 million years ago are caused ...

In the shadow of melting glaciers, a quiet revolution is unfolding one that is stirring to life volcanoes long inactive under ...

New research from the Chilean Patagonia has identified a link between glacial retreat and underground volcanic activity ...

The work confirms the theory that the pressure applied by heavy ice makes it harder for magma to reach the surface, instead ...

Glaciers tend to suppress the volume of eruptions from the volcanoes beneath them. But as glaciers retreat due to climate change, our findings suggest these volcanoes go on to erupt more frequently ...

And the eruptions can make warming worse, melting more glaciers.
