As magma, or molten rock, moves underground it creates earthquakes. The signature of magma-driven seismic waves is different from that of normal tectonic earthquakes. With multiple seismometers it is possible to determine where earthquakes are and whether or not they are migrating. If earthquakes are moving closer to the surface and closer to a volcano, that is a sign it might be getting ready for an eruption.
