Deep below the surface of the ocean, bacteria and critters that feed off nutrients spouting from hydrothermal vents met with ...

Ancient limestones reveal how volcanic carbon once suffocated the oceans - offering a stark warning as modern oxygen levels continue to drop.

RPI researchers were the first to ever collect data during an underwater eruption on the Mid Ocean Ridge System. They happened to be on site to gather data from hydrothermal vents.

A powerful underwater volcano known as Axial Seamount off the Oregon coast may erupt. Though scientists say it poses no tsunami risk, its proximity to the Cascadia subduction zone raises concern.

Axial Seamount is one of countless volcanoes that are underwater. Scientists estimate that 80% of Earth’s volcanic output — magma and lava — occurs in the ocean.

The volcano, which now stretches some 800 meters off the seafloor, didn’t even exist six months prior, and reports from island residents paint a clear picture of when it was created.

Why do researchers believe an underwater volcano off the Oregon Coast will erupt in 2025? Researchers at Oregon State University's Hatfield Marine Science Center are monitoring the Axial Seamount ...

LOS ANGELES — A mysterious and highly active undersea volcano off the Pacific Coast could erupt by the end of this year, scientists say. Nearly a mile deep and about 700 miles northwest of San ...

Nearly a mile deep and about 700 miles northwest of San Francisco, the volcano known as Axial Seamount is drawing increasing scrutiny from scientists who only discovered its existence in the 1980s.

Axial Seamount is one of countless volcanoes that are underwater. Scientists estimate that 80% of Earth's volcanic output—magma and lava—occurs in the ocean.

An underwater volcano off the Pacific Coast could erupt by the end of the year, according to scientists. The volcano, known as Axial Seamount, is more than 4,900 feet beneath the Pacific Ocean and ...
