Yellowstone eruptions may be driven by shifts in Earth's crust, rather than a deep well of magma, study finds.

A sideways flow of hot mantle rock, not a deep plume rising from near Earth’s core, may be feeding one of the planet’s most closely watched supervolcanoes. That is the picture emerging from a new ...

Beneath the geysers and steaming ground of Yellowstone National Park lies one of the most studied, yet still elusive, volcanic systems on Earth. Unlike most volcanoes that form along shifting tectonic ...

“Even more colossal” is the way University of Utah researchers now describe the Yellowstone super volcano, which lies under the Wyoming’s northwest corner, after discovering that it is over twice as ...

A gigantic bulge in the north rim of the Yellowstone caldera is the latest sign of volcanic activity in the national park. Geologists call this type of bulge “volcanic uplift.” It’s often caused by ...
