How are satellite images used to predict volcanic eruption?

Satellites are used to monitor the changes in the shape of the mountains. Specifically this is done rather often on the big island of Hawaii to make sure that none of the two dormant volcanoes (Mauna Loa and Hualalai) are changing shape which would indicate magma movement into the upper Plumbing of the volcanoes. Often times the same type of radar imagery is used to reconstruct the changes throughout a volcanic eruption, this radar imagery service is also used on the Yellowstone Super Caldera. Examples of how this has been used can be seen on both the Hawaii Volcanoes Observatory website and Yellowstone Volcano Observatory website. (See related links).

How is science used at Yellowstone National Park?

Science is used to better understand Yellowstone's natural features, such as wildlife, plants, geothermal features, microorganisms, etc, primarily to aid in making management decisions for the park. Doing so, however, provides a wider knowledge base that can be applied to other natural systems, too.
