News brief recipient (include name, title and organization) President joko widodo, president of republic of indonesia. It has been reported recently that scientists at oxford university have discovered a new early warning sign for volcanic eruptions. Their studies were carried out near campi flegrei at. Naples, italy where it had been proven that gasses emitted by volcanoes can provide an indication as to when an eruption may occur. The place where the scientists carried out their experiment was once known as europe"s super volcano. This is due to the fact that below the volcano"s surface lays another intense and strong volcanic layer. However, this has caused most geologists to face a dilemma between the time capsule from volcanic eruptions and current thinking on how a volcano erupts.
