How a Finnish physicist named Karl Lemström once became obsessed with recreating the aurora borealis from scratch – and may ...

An active underwater volcano 300 miles off the Oregon Coast that was predicted to erupt in 2025 is now expected to erupt ...

A new study finds the Santorini volcano erupted decades before Pharaoh Ahmose, challenging its long-assumed link to early New ...

Scientists have discovered that shear forces inside rising magma can create gas bubbles long before pressure drops occur. The intensity of a volcanic eruption is shaped by how many gas bubbles develop ...

Scientists have uncovered a long-missing piece of the volcanic puzzle: rising magma doesn’t just form explosive gas bubbles when pressure drops—it can do so simply by being sheared and “kneaded” ...

In a new study, researchers show that gas bubbles can form in the rising magma not only due to a drop in pressure but also due to shear forces. If these gas bubbles grow in the volcanic vent early on ...

Like a dormant volcano, plenty of people just can’t get going in the morning without some coffee. Surprisingly, the physics of java and lava are actually quite similar, at least when it comes to ...
