The Mediterranean Isn’t Safe: Scientists Warn of Inevitable Tsunami Contrary to common belief, the Mediterranean holds a significant and underrecognized tsunami risk, with waves capable of striking coastlines in minutes. The Mediterranean Sea is often dismissed as a low-risk zone for tsunamis, but that assumption is increasingly being challenged. Historical recor

This Supervolcano Is Refilling With Magma After 7,300 Years A supervolcano that once shook the Earth is quietly recharging—and scientists are finally seeing how it happens. Scientists have found that the magma reservoir linked to the largest volcanic eruption of the Holocene is filling again. The discovery, led by Kobe University researchers studying Japa

Mars' 'young' volcanoes prove more complex than scientists once thought What appears to be a single volcanic eruption is often the result of complex processes operating deep beneath the surface, where magma moves, evolves, and changes over long periods of time. To fully u...

Mars’ young volcanoes show multi-phase magma flows, revealing complex #FluidDynamics beneath Pavonis Mons.
Studying these planetary flows can inform models of heat and phase transfer in extreme environments.
