      How did they figure out what caused the volcanos to erupt? Can you see how a specific volcano erupted based off of that?
  • Development of buoyancy overpressure at the top of a magma layer
  • Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities develop naturally whenever buoyant magma layers form.

A teeny device can measure subtle shifts in Earth's gravitational field - 0 views

  • Called gravimeters, such devices can detect tectonic plates shifting, sense the movement of underground water, reveal hidden oil and gas reserves, and track magma within volcanoes to provide data for predicting eruptions, along with many other applications.
