Abstract
- The article discusses studies published in "Nature Geoscience" which examined factors causing the eruption of a supervolcano. Topics highlighted include slow filling of supervolcano chambers with hot magma, effects of buoyancy on large magma chambers and monitoring of magma to allow scientists to estimate the risk of a blast from supervolcanoes.
