Researchers used seismic tomography to reveal that fluid buildup, not magma, is driving Uturuncu’s deformation, indicating ...

Scientists have mapped what are essentially the bones, blood vessels and nervous system of a "zombie volcano ... data to peer through the volcano, including seismic monitoring that tracked ...

However, this indication is also why researchers believe that the eruption risk is low. Uturuncu isn’t the only zombie volcano researchers are monitoring. From this study, the research team is hoping ...

Beneath the tall peaks of Uturuncu in the Sur Lípez Province of Bolivia, scientists have figured out what is happening in the magma chambers deep underground, as materials slowly make their way up ...

Further research could also lead to a new way to harness geothermal energy. Uturuncu is not the only zombie volcano that has existed. "Over decades, the Global Volcanism Program has recorded about ...
