"A strong magnetic field is very important for life on a planet." ...

Volcanos are releasing ash and smoke into the atmosphere on three continents. That might be making you think back to your elementary school science class when you probably studied volcanoes and lava.

Volcanic eruptions are dangerous and difficult to predict. A team has found that the ratio of atoms in specific gases released from volcanic fumaroles (gaps in the Earth's surface) can provide an ...

Studies reveal that beneath seemingly tranquil mountains, magma boils in shallow layers, reducing volcanic warning time.

In addition to shaping the interior of rocky planets, molten rock located deep within these planets may also contribute to the creation of a planet’s magnetic fields, which protect the entire planet ...

(CNN) — A mysterious type of magma found within extinct volcanoes scattered around the world could contain an abundant supply of rare earth elements, crucial ingredients for electric vehicles, wind ...

The Cornell Gazel Research Group has developed a rapid and accurate way to determine the depth of magma storage underneath volcanoes. The published research, led by Prof. Esteban Gazel, earth and ...

Q: Is all volcanic magma the same temperature? A: The temperature of magma inside a volcano — and of lava as it emerges — is highly variable and depends in part on the chemical composition of the ...

Volcanic eruptions are dangerous and difficult to predict. A team at the University of Tokyo has found that the ratio of atoms in specific gases released from volcanic fumaroles (gaps in the Earth’s ...
