1978 SO2 Levels
Would it be worthwhile including the Pioneer Venus Orbiter atmospheric observations circa 1978? As mentioned elsewhere such as TIME Magazine or Science there was a surge in the level of sulfur dioxide in Venus' atmosphere around that time, providing at least circumstantial evidence for a recent eruption.

Active Volcanoes Discovered on Venus
The entry for Venus reports that active volcanism has been discovered on Venus, which discovery should be added to this entry in the interest of internal consistency. I leave this addition to others better qualified than I. Phaedrus7 (talk) 18:46, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

External links modified
Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to 1 one external link on Volcanology of Venus. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
 * Added archive https://web.archive.org/20070817010156/http://volcano.und.edu:80/vwdocs/planet_volcano/venus/intro.html to http://volcano.und.edu/vwdocs/planet_volcano/venus/intro.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Cheers.—cyberbot II  Talk to my owner :Online 14:49, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Move discussion in progress
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Volcanology of Canada which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 00:03, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Phosphides on Venus
Greetings, fellow Wikipedians! I'm new here and will be editing this page as a class assignment. I'm planning to add a section regarding the phosphides detected in Venus' atmosphere, which are likely linked to volcanism. Hamsquirrel (talk) 00:54, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

A new map of 85,000 volcanoes on Venus!
Press release: https://source.wustl.edu/2023/03/scientists-share-comprehensive-map-of-volcanoes-on-venus-all-85000-of-them/ "Intrigued by reports of recent volcanic eruptions on Venus? WashU planetary scientists Paul Byrne and Rebecca Hahn want you to use their new map of 85,000 volcanoes on Venus to help locate the next active lava flow.

Their study was posted online ahead of print in JGR Planets.

“This paper provides the most comprehensive map of all volcanic edifices on Venus ever compiled,” said Byrne, an associate professor of earth and planetary sciences in Arts & Sciences at Washington University in St. Louis. “It provides researchers with an enormously valuable database for understanding volcanism on that planet — a key planetary process, but for Venus is something about which we know very little, even though it’s a world about the same size as our own.”

Byrne and Hahn used radar imagery from NASA’s Magellan mission to Venus to catalog volcanoes across Venus at a global scale. Their resulting database contains 85,000 volcanoes, about 99% of which are less than 3 miles (5 km) in diameter." Pete Tillman (talk) 02:49, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
