 - Volcanic eruption signals simulated in lab for first time (10/11/2008)
 Oct 11, 9:39am  (1 review) software, geoscience, volcanoes, eruptions http://www.geologytimes.com/research/Vol...- From the page: "For the first time, seismic signals that precede a volcanic eruption have been simulated and visualized in 3-D under controlled pressure conditions in a laboratory. The ability to conduct such simulations will better equip municipal authorities in volcanic hot spots around the world in knowing when to alert people who live near volcanoes of an impending eruption."

- From the page: "Following a record-breaking season of arctic sea ice decline in 2007, NASA scientists have kept a close watch on the 2008 melt season. Although the melt season did not break the record for ice loss, NASA data are showing that for a four-week period in August 2008, sea ice melted faster during that period than ever before."
