By reconstructing a 700,000-year history of Methana volcano, geologists found a prehistoric phase when it appeared inactive on the surface, despite magma building up below ground

Philippine officials say nearly 200,000 people have been affected by massive plumes of ash that billowed from Mayon volcano over the weekend due to the collapse of lava deposits from its slopes.

While the USGS scientists learned plenty about volcanism in El Salvador during this trip, it also provided key insights to bring home to our own volcanoes. Explosive eruptions in Hawaii are relatively rare, but the ability to correctly interpret their deposits is critical to understanding potential future hazards.

Record ejection distance: Volcanic bombs have traveled up to 1,300 meters from Sakurajima's crater, surpassing earlier distances in this eruption cycle. Risk zone impact: The extended range brings hazards closer to farmland, roads, and utility areas near ...

Sakurajima volcano, the restless stratovolcano that looms across Kinko Bay from Kagoshima city, has hurled volcanic bombs as far as 1,300 meters from its crater during the current eruption cycle, according to activity reports compiled by the Smithsonian’s Global Volcanism Program from Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) observations.
