A supervolcano is any volcano that erupts with an Explosivity Index of at least 8. There are currently no active supervolcanoes on Earth, and the last one erupted over 26,000 years ago, though some such as Yellowstone threaten to erupt again....
Now scientists find that many hotspots are dramatically cooler than previously thought, raising questions about their origins. “A substantial fraction of hotspots do not fit the classical plume model,” said Vedran Lekic, a seismologist at the University of Maryland, College Park, who did not pa...
How deep is the Yellowstone volcano? How deep is the ocean around Antarctica? How far down is the asthenosphere? Oceanic crust is formed of how many layers? Which atmospheric layer is closest to the Earth's crust? How deep does the Yellowstone supervolcano magma chamber go?

I know what you mean about earthquakes or other natural disasters wiping you out, if the Yellowstone volcano blows, we’ll never know it. I’ve been watching the news about the earthquake this week that had an epi-center in New Jersey and was felt from Maine to Washington DC. Talk about...
Yellowstone Volcano Observatory’s Webcam At Yellowstone Lake Anime fashions work through booru tags, and prompts with out them usually do not work, so understanding them is godmode. Not all tags will work properly in all fashions though, specially if they’re uncommon. Image Browser – This...
Yellowstone sits above a spot in the Earth's mantle where columns of hot, molten rock called plumes rise to form volcanoes in the planet's crust. This spot is called a hotspot, and it creates atype of volcano not associated with a plate boundary. Yellowstone has produced three calderatypes...

It is generally accepted that tectonic earthquakes may trigger volcanic activity, although the underlying mechanisms are poorly constrained. Here, we review current knowledge, and introduce a novel framework to help characterize earthquake-triggering pro
