Volcanoes are an explosive and mysterious process by which molten rock from Earth's interior escapes back into the atmosphere. Why the volcano erupts - and where it draws its lava from - could help trace the lifecycle of materials that make up our planet. New University of Washington research ...
The ongoing interactions between Agung and Batur have important implications for interpretation of distal seismicity, the links between closely spaced arc volcanoes, and the potential for cascading hazards.Similar content being viewed by others Active Volcanism Revealed from a Seismicity Conduit in the ...
Arc volcanoes are underlain by complex systems of molten-rock reservoirs ranging from melt-poor mush zones to melt-rich magma chambers. Petrological and satellite data indicate that eruptible magma chambers form in the topmost few kilometres of the crust. However, very few chambers have ever been...
Yet, we have sparse knowledge of the migration pathways of melts through the upper mantle (i.e., between the surface of the subducted plate and arc volcanoes). We are also uncertain of the time required for this migration to occur. Here, we show evidence of two earthquake swarms that ...

Island arcs are chains of volcanoes that are caused by partial melting of the plate at a subduction zone. They are called arcs because they are typically curved, convex towards the ocean basin and trench.What Is an Island Arc? Volcanic island arcs are major structures of ocean basin features...
