New research tracks past geologic changes in volcanoes that slumbered deep beneath ice sheets, and what happened when the ice melted. The findings suggest that global warming may be setting the stage for more explosive and frequent volcanic eruptions.
Melting Ice Caps Could Bring Dormant Volcanoes to Life, Research from the Chilean Andes Shows - Inside Climate News
In a feedback of fire and ice, thinning ice sheets over geologic hot spots could allow more eruptions, while increased volcanic activity may speed the meltdown.
