AI Uncovers 86,000 Hidden Earthquakes Beneath Yellowstone’s Surface

YELLOWSTONE CALDERA, YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, WYOMING, UNITED STATES, JUL 21 – Machine learning analysis revealed 86,276 earthquakes from 2008 to 2022 in Yellowstone caldera, uncovering numerous swarms and vastly improving seismic data accuracy.

Summary by Science Daily
Beneath Yellowstone’s stunning surface lies a hyperactive seismic world, now better understood thanks to machine learning. Researchers have uncovered over 86,000 earthquakes—10 times more than previously known—revealing chaotic swarms moving along rough, young fault lines. With these new insights, we’re getting closer to decoding Earth’s volcanic heartbeat and improving how we predict and manage volcanic and geothermal hazards.
