Scientists Identify Seismic Trigger Before 2022 Tonga Eruption; Insight Could Improve Tsunami Warnings
A seismic wave recorded 15 minutes before the massive 2022 Tonga eruption could help scientists improve early-warning systems for remote oceanic volcanoes and mitigate tsunami risks. Researchers found that a rupture beneath the volcano’s caldera allowed seawater to mix with magma, triggering the eruption. This discovery may provide critical lead-...

2022 Tonga Eruption: Public Observations and Scientific Data Illuminate Hunga Volcano's Global Impact
The Hunga volcano eruption near Tonga on January 15, 2022, sent shockwaves and tsunamis across the globe, creating low, booming sounds heard as far away as Alaska. In New Zealand, more than 2,100 public observations of the eruption, from rumbling sounds to animals reacting, helped scientists at GNS Science cross-verify seismic and atmospheric data....

Moon Had Surprisingly Recent Volcanic Activity, Samples Confirm
Volcanoes were erupting on the Moon as recently as 120 million years ago, evidence collected by a Chinese spacecraft suggests. Until the last few years, scientists had thought volcanic activity ended on the Moon around 2 billion years ago.

Antarctic Volcano That Ships Can Sail Into May Hold Clues To Life On Mars
On Deception Island in Antarctica, steam rises from the beaches, and glaciers dot the black slopes of what is actually an active volcano -- a rare clash of ice and fire that provides clues to scientists about what life could look like on Mars.
