Yellowstone Caldera Chronicles is a weekly column written by scientists and collaborators of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory. This week s contribution is from Mark Stelten, research geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey. Yellowstone National Park and its world-famous hydrothermal system are the result a long and dynamic volcanic history that spans millions of years. Yellowstoneâs landscape is a reflection of explosive eruptions that produced large basin-shaped depressions referred to as calderas and viscous rhyolite lava flows that produced the broad plateaus. Over the past 50 years scientists have been piecing together the volcanic events that have shaped Yellowstone into the natural wonder it is today.
