What caused the unrest at Bolivia's Uturuncu volcano, and what are the immediate implications of this discovery?

Researchers have identified the cause of unrest at Bolivia's Uturuncu volcano, a dormant volcano displaying signs of potential eruption. Movement of liquid and gas beneath the crater, visualized through geophysical and geological methods, is responsible for the observed ground deformation and gas plumes. This discovery is significant as Uturuncu sits atop the world's largest known magma body.
