Yellowstone volcano geology monitoring
Scientists are closely monitoring the ground beneath Yellowstone National Park, tracking geological shifts in one of the most volcanically active regions in the world. Yellowstone sits atop a massive supervolcano, and researchers use a network of sensors to detect changes in ground deformation, seismic activity, and thermal features.

The ongoing monitoring effort is part of a broader scientific initiative to better understand the behavior of the Yellowstone caldera and assess any potential risks. While experts emphasize that an eruption is not imminent, continuous observation remains critical for early detection of any significant changes in the park's underground volcanic system.
