Hydrothermal explosions hidden beneath Yellowstone Lake’s serene waters Release Date:
December 28, 2020
Although Yellowstone Lake itself may seem calm, the floor of the lake is littered with hydrothermal explosion craters. Detailed studies are beginning to reveal the details of these explosions, like the one that formed Elliott’s Crater about 8000 years ago.
Yellowstone Caldera Chronicles is a weekly column written by scientists and collaborators of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory. This week s contribution is from Lisa Morgan, emeritus research geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey.

Many, if not most, larger explosion craters have multiple explosion histories and are long-lived hydrothermal systems.
Her most current research work, a six-year project funded by NIH in which she serves as the principal investigator is the “Environmental Health Research Experiences for Teachers in High-Poverty Schools: A Professional Development Program.” This project provides teachers from high need schools across North Carolina with knowledge in environmental health research sciences.
The NIH-funded program, which is a collaboration with faculty from the Department of Biological Sciences at NC State and hosted at the Center for Human Health and the Environment, enables teachers to gain specialized environmental health knowledge and research skills that can impact students’ science learning and promote interest and readiness for STEM careers among historically minoritized students.

Picture this: a small group of middle school students are learning about ancient Egypt, so they strap on a virtual reality headset and, with the assistance of an artificial intelligence tour guide, begin to explore the Pyramids of Giza.
The teacher, also journeying to one of the oldest known civilizations via a VR headset, has assigned students to gather information to write short essays. During the tour, the AI guide fields questions from students and points them to specific artifacts and discuss what they see.
In preparing the AI-powered lesson on Egypt, the teacher beforehand would have worked with the AI program to craft a lesson plan that not only dives deep into the subject, but figures out how to keep the group moving through the virtual field trip and how to create more equal participation during the discussion. In that scenario, the AI listens, observes and interacts naturally to enhance a group learning experience, and to make a teacher’s job easier.
