Geoscientists discovered a magma cap acting as a "lid" 2.4 miles beneath Yellowstone. This magma cap traps heat and pressure, but also allows gas to vent, reducing eruption risk.

A magma cap that is likely playing a critical role in preventing a huge volcanic eruption has been found at Yellowstone National Park, according to new research by Rice University.

The cap works like a lid on a pot, keeping the pressure and heat created down below. And by finding a defined magma cap, researchers have also been able to determine that Yellowstone’s system ...

The cap allows those bubbles to rise upward before being transferred out of the system. Yellowstone’s iconic hydrothermal features are known to emit gases found within magma, like that below ...
