Research teams have identified approximately 6,000 cubic kilometers of volcanic fluids situated 8 to 15 kilometers below the surface in Tuscany, an area that lacks the typical surface indicators of such geological formations. This volume is akin to that found in supervolcanic regions like Yellowstone National Park. Utilizing ambient noise tomography, experts from the University of Geneva alongside Italian research institutions analyzed subtle vibrations created by ocean waves and wind, captured by around 60 seismic sensors. The researchers reassure that this geological system does not present any immediate danger and propose that this technique may also aid in identifying geothermal energy sources and lithium reserves.
