Yellowstone volcano: Imminent ERUPTION will sound alarm before cataclysm, experts warn

A study led by volcano researchers from the University of Illinois (UI), US, has found supervolcano eruptions are preceded by years of significant seismic activity.

A volcano like Yellowstone could take tens if not hundreds of thousands of years worth of warning signals before it pops.

Patricia Gregg, geology professor at UI, explained: “When new magma starts to rejuvenate a supervolcano system, we can expect to see massive uplift, faulting and earthquake activity.
