Study finds 10 times more quakes in Yellowstone than earlier records showed

"A newly compiled seismic catalogue based on 15 years of waveform data shows that the Yellowstone caldera, a large volcanic depression spanning parts of Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana, experienced 86 276 earthquakes between 2008 and 2022.

This marks a tenfold increase compared to the previously known number of events and was made possible through the application of advanced machine learning techniques and a region-specific 3D velocity model." W
