"Accidental Discovery: Mystery Magma Reservoir Uncovered in Volcanoless Alaska"

Scientists studying seismic activity in the Denali volcanic gap region of Alaska accidentally discovered evidence of a magma reservoir about 7 miles beneath the surface, challenging the belief that the area was devoid of volcanic activity. The discovery was made by analyzing seismic data collected following a magnitude 7.1 earthquake in 2018, revealing a "seismic-velocity anomaly" indicating the presence of slow-moving, molten magma. Further research is needed to confirm the findings and understand the nature of the anomaly in this volcanoless region.
