Caldera formation arises when large volumes of magma are evacuated from a sub-surface reservoir, leading to gravitational collapse of the overlying rock into the evacuated space. The process begins ...

Caldera systems, formed by the collapse of a volcanic edifice following major magma extraction, represent some of the most dynamic and hazardous volcanic environments on Earth. Activity within these ...

The magma reservoir of the largest volcanic eruption of the Holocene is refilling. This Kobe University insight on the Kikai caldera in Japan allows us to understand giant caldera volcanoes like ...

Campi Flegrei is speeding toward a transition, which will either cause an eruption or a change to its underground magma chamber.

7,300 years ago, the Kikai Caldera produced the largest volcanic event of the Holocene. The Akahoya eruption expelled 160 cubic kilometers of rock, 32 times the volume of the 1991 Pinatubo eruption.

This stunning astronaut photo shows the natural beauty of Japan's Aso Caldera — a giant crater-like bowl containing 17 different volcanoes, leftover from major eruptions spanning over 200,000 years.

The last caldera-forming eruption at Yellowstone "was much more complex than previously thought," according to the annual report about activity at the supervolcano. When you purchase through links on ...

The last super-eruption at Yellowstone volcano, which occurred 631,000 years ago, was not one huge explosion. Instead, new research suggests it was a series of eruptions or multiple vents spewing ...
