AI uncovers 86,000 hidden earthquakes beneath Yellowstone’s surface
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.
Yellowstone Supervolcano: Eruption Risk and Global Impact
Yellowstone National Park is located on top of one of the most harmful volcanoes in the world. There has been a concern over the years that there is a probability of an explosion of Yellowstone National Park that will transform our lives. This megavolcano was silent during hundreds of thousands of years; however, scientists are […]
By conducting a routine visit last April to the Norris Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park in the United States, geologists identified a new hydrothermal basin. Measuring about four metres in diameter, it would have started to form in December last year and gradually expanded with multiple small explosions spanning several weeks. Hydrothermal explosions occur when overheated groundwater accumulates pressure and passes quickly [...] This ar…
AI Reveals 10X More Yellowstone Volcano Earthquakes Than Known Before
Yellowstone was the first national park designated in the United States and is a popular tourist destination, but there is a lot going on underneath that people never feel.A new analysis of 15 years of historical earthquake data from the Yellowstone caldera used machine learning and found an order of magnitude more seismic events than previously acknowledged.
