High-precision GPS can be used to detect shifts in the ground on and near a volcano. This can be used to infer the underground movement of magma, which can help in predicting an eruption.

Can geologist predict how powerful a volcanic eruption will be?
Yes
How do you predict a volcanic eruption using GPS?
You don't. Prediction of volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and other geological phenomena cannot be made. Guesses might be made from measurement of land movement with GPS, small tremors with seismographs, and heat flow with IR scanners, but they aren't accurate enough to call them predictions.
When will be the next volcanic eruption in montserrat?
It is impossible to predict the next time a volcano will erupt.
Can scientists predict the energy of a volcanic eruption based on the percentage of water in the magma?
steam in the magma
Can scientists predict volcanic eruptions?
Yes, scientists can predict volcanic eruptions, but only to a certain extent of accuracy. One method is to use earthquakes. Earthquakes usually increase and become more violent before a volcanic eruption

Can you stop volcanic eruption?
No, but people have been able to predict when volcanic eruptions are going to happen for several years. Hope this was helpful :)
What are the precautions for volcanic eruption?
A few things that can predict an occurance of a volcanic eruption can be seismic activity such as tremors or small earthquakes. The release of certain gases such as Sulfur Dioxide and other gases.
Can scientist predict when a volcanic eruption?
No. They have found there are signs that can give indications that one may happen.
When will the next huge volcano erupt?
It is impossible to predict when or where the next major volcanic eruption will occur.

Volcanic eruptions are so deadly is that there is no way to predict where an eruption will occur in the near future?
That statement is false. Sometimes a volcanic eruption can be predicted, because the ground rumbles, or bulges, or gets hotter and hotter.
What to study to forecast an earthquake?
You cannot forecast an earthquake, you can however predict the eruption of a volcanic eruption, an earthquake is unpredictable, as it is the result in a sudden release of pressure in the earths crust, if you could predict them there would be no deaths resulting from them.
Do you say a volcano eruption or volcanic eruption?
It's eruption.
