"Surprising Discovery: Yellowstone Supervolcano's Magma Chamber Holds Vast Reserves of Molten Rock"

A new study has found that the amount of melted rock beneath Yellowstone's supervolcano is higher than previously estimated, with the upper magma reservoir containing 28% melt. While there is no sign of an imminent eruption, understanding the proportion of liquid in magma reservoirs can help evaluate the risk of volcanic eruptions in other areas. The methodology used in the study provided detailed insights into the composition of the magma chamber, which consists of solid rock, semi-liquid crystals, gases, and other volatile substances. Further research is needed to fully understand the dynamics of the Yellowstone supervolcano and its eruption potential.
