TAIWAN Volcanic eruptions can be predicted through the detection of radioactive gas emitted prior to an eruption, according to scientists in Taiwan. ... Chih-Chieh Su and Chih-An Huh, from the Taiwan Institute of Earth Sciences, suggest it may be possible to tell if a volcano is going to erupt by measuring the amount...

With 1,500 active volcanoes worldwide, scientists are struggling to predict eruptions. ... Volcanoes, perhaps the most awesome manifestations of geologic forces, also are the messiest and most inconvenient. When they erupt, they can despoil large areas of sky and landscape for years. But since they often slumber for...

SCIENTISTS may be able to predict major volcanic eruptions based on the amount of water in magma, the molten rock within the volcano. ... Explosive volcanic eruptions are caused by the escape of gases from magma stored in underground reservoirs. Monitoring magma has been difficult because it is so far below the surface.
