<ul><li>Geophysicists and seismologists have identified the location of Yellowstone's shallowest magma reservoir with unprecedented precision.</li><li>The reservoir's top lies 3.8 km below the surface, and it shows evidence of gas bubbles and molten silicic rock filling the volcanic rock's pore space.</li><li>Researchers used artificial seismic waves and a network of portable seismometers to determine the reservoir's properties, aiding in more accurate predictions of the supervolcano's eruption potential.</li><li>This study not only provides insights into Yellowstone's volcanic activity but also offers methods that could help monitor the eruption potential of other volcanoes.</li></ul>
