The US Geological Survey detected a magnitude 3.3 quake at 9.20am ET Thursday morning right along the Yellowstone River inside the Wyoming park.
The minor quake's epicenter was recorded just seven miles from the Yellowstone caldera, the bowl-shaped volcanic depression within the famous national park.
Last year, scientists discovered tens of thousands of previously unrecorded earthquakes which could be hinting that Yellowstone's supervolcano is building up to an eruption.
An international research team used AI to listen to 15 years of Yellowstone recordings and discovered 86,000 tiny earthquakes that human experts had missed. That was about ten times the number of quakes researchers previously believed had taken place.
In the past three weeks, 11 minor quakes have been recorded by USGS in the area around the caldera.

Reporters love these ai stories. They said almost the exact same thing about Solfaterra some months ago.
Laughed out loud!
We’re all gonna die😱 Fear porn
Maybe it’s just the bison’s tossing geezers.
“Thousands (theoretically) dead! Women and minorities hardest hit! Trump slashed funding to prevent volcanoes!” :)

Goodness that is hilarious! I don’t mean to laugh at his misfortune. A fractured femur is a big deal. I’m glad he survived.
Yeah, my vibrating bed is higher than 3.3 Richter scale lol
Okay ... who did this? 🤣
Selling us climate fears from this to super El Nino, and bomb cyclones, atmospheric rivers, cat 7 hurricanes, Extreme tornadoes and much much more. Trump’s fault
An international research team used AI to listen to 15 years of Yellowstone recordings and discovered 86,000 tiny earthquakes that human experts had missed.
Definitly a nothingburger study.
If the AI were to study the 15 years before the study period would it find 86,000 missed quakes or 186,000 missed quakes.
This is the same error the Global Warmist make in saying that data shows the Earth is warming at an unprecedented rate.
The data collected today can't be compare to the data collected decades ago because the instrumentation used today is radically different that 20 years ago in quantity and a quality.
The only value in this study is something we already knew.
AI can analyze data better than humans.
Those brave Yellowstoans!

Here is the scientific explanation of what will happen. Doesn't look too bad to me . . . .
I spent much of the summer of 1985 around Alpine, WY. There were lots of little quakes, maybe one a week or so that you could notice. It’s a seismically active part of the world.
Modern seismic networks detect roughly 20,000 earthquakes per year with magnitude 2.5 or greater, averaging about 55 per day. If you include earthquakes below magnitude 2.5, the true number is many thousands to tens of thousands every day.
Earthquakes people actually notice
Felt by people: a few dozen each day worldwide.
Capable of causing damage (M5.0+): about 4 per day on average.
Major destructive earthquakes (M7.0+): about 16 per year, or roughly one every three weeks.
Great earthquakes (M8.0+): about one per year, though some years have none and others have several.
These are long-term averages; individual years can vary considerably because earthquake occurrence is naturally irregular.
