Axial Seamount may erupt by 2026: Uncovering the hidden dangers of Oregon’s most active underwater volcano
Oregon's Axial Seamount, a highly active underwater volcano, is closely monitored for potential eruptions by mid-to-late 2026. Scientists track seafloor inflation and seismic activity, noting that eruptions follow periods of magma accumulation and stress. While predictions are based on historical patterns, new physics-based models are being tested to improve forecasting accuracy.
