Geoscientists have identified a magma cap at Yellowstone National Park, composed of molten silicate materials, supercritical water, and porous rock, located approximately 2.4 miles beneath the surface. This cap functions as a pressure and heat trap, potentially preventing a massive eruption in the supervolcano, with researchers utilizing advanced seismic imaging techniques to study its structure. While the system is stable and actively venting gases, the researchers assert that an eruption is not imminent, providing crucial insights into the complex geology of Yellowstone’s volcanic system.
