Mike Poland, scientist-in-charge of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory, provides this update from Sapphire Pool in Biscuit Basin. This thermal feature and others, like Grand Prismatic Spring and Old Faithful, form from water, snow melt, and rainwater that circulates down in the earth and becomes heated by the cooling magma body beneath Yellowstone. The water picks up some of the gases from that magma body and, because it's warm, it starts dissolving some of the rock beneath the surface that's v

There are thousands of volcanic features distributed throughout the southwest United States, which are grouped together in volcanic fields. The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO) monitors these volcanoes using a combination of techniques. While YVO hasn’t seen anything to suggest magma is on the move, the area is stretched and pulled apart to produce numerous tectonic earthquakes. YVO keeps an eye on these volcanoes and the Yellowstone Volcano, as described in this monthly video update by Mik
