"Eruptions of the Yellowstone volcanic system have included the two largest
volcanic eruptions in North America in the past few million years; the third
largest was at Long Valley in California and produced the Bishop ash bed. The
biggest of the Yellowstone eruptions occurred 2.1 million years ago, depositing
the Huckleberry Ridge ash bed. These eruptions left behind huge volcanic
depressions called calderas and spread volcanic ash over large parts of North
America (see map). If another large caldera-forming eruption were to occur at
Yellowstone, its effects would be worldwide. Thick ash deposits would bury vast
areas of the United States, and injection of huge volumes of volcanic gases into
the atmosphere could drastically affect global climate. Fortunately, the
Yellowstone volcanic system shows no signs that it is headed toward such an
eruption in the near future. In fact, the probability of any such event
occurring at Yellowstone within the next few thousand years is exceedingly low."
