Antarctic Ice Sheet Melting May Intensify Volcanic Eruptions, Study Finds

The melting of Antarctic ice sheets is linked to more intense and frequent volcanic eruptions, as found by recent research. Reduced ice mass alleviates pressure on magma chambers beneath the surface, causing them to expand and release volatile gases, which can lead to eruptions. A study has drawn connections between this process and increased volcanic activity in area…
