Yellowstone National Park, known for erupting geysers like Old Faithful, is home to one of earth’s largest volcanic systems, with the capacity to wreak havoc on an entire continent — and components of that so-called supervolcano are on the move, experts say.

Nature revealed a study by researchers focused on the Yellowstone Caldera. The researchers identified new information about the magma levels and the chances of a major eruption. If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site,

A team of geologists at the US Geological Survey, working with a trio of colleagues from Oregon State University, and another from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, has found evidence of rhyolitic volcanism in Yellowstone caldera shifting northeast.

Geologists from the USGS are warning about changes in volcanic activity at Yellowstone that may shift to the northeast, according to Newsweek. The latest research conducted by scientists from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) indicates a possible shift in magma activity beneath the Yellowstone supervolcano towards the northeast.
