Even this scale of an eruption, they predict, would only change global temperatures by roughly 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit. Could Yellowstone Erupt Again? Yellowstone's supervolcano remains active, but ...

A VEI 4 eruption would be closer to 0.1 cubic kilometers (0.024 cubic miles), like the 2021 eruption of La Soufrière on the island of St. Vincent in the Caribbean, while a VEI 6 eruption would ...

It’s still possible that the northeastern portion of the park could erupt in a massive explosive eruption similar to those that have occurred at Yellowstone in the past 2.1 million years.

Scientists don't think Yellowstone's supervolcano would be erupting any time soon (at least not in the next thousand years). The odds of it erupting within a given year are one in 730,000 ...

In Yellowstone National Park, in the northwest corner of Wyoming, lies the Yellowstone caldera, one of the most famous supervolcanoes on Earth. The supervolcano's last eruption was 631,000 years ago.

The most recent volcanic eruption at Yellowstone was a lava flow that occurred around 70,000 years ago, ... it is even possible that Yellowstone will never see an eruption on such a scale again.

New mapping of the magma lying beneath Yellowstone National Park sheds light on where volcanic activity is shifting, and the likelihood of a full-scale eruption.

Should Yellowstone approach eruption, we wouldn't know whether it was on the cusp of small-scale destruction or large-scale calamity. Credit: Bennington et al, Nature/DOI 10.1038/s41586-024-08286-z ...

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK — While a full-scale volcanic eruption of a Yellowstone super volcano often grabs the headlines and shows up in disaster movies; full-scale eruptions are incredibly ...

The caldera is the enormous volcanic crater left from the last time Yellowstone experienced a giant eruption, 640,000 years ago. It covers an area about 30 by 45 miles .
