Detailed explanation-1: -Geysers are hot springs that intermittently spout a column of hot water and steam into the air. This action is caused by the water in deep conduits beneath a geyser approaching or reaching the boiling point.
Detailed explanation-2: -A hot water spring, also known as a thermal spring, is a natural discharge of hot water from the earth.Such springs normally occur in areas where underground water passes through hot igneous rock.
Detailed explanation-3: -If it rises quickly, this superheated water can flash to steam, propelling both steam and hot water to the surface as a geyser. More commonly, hot water rises and loses its heat at a steady rate, flowing to the surface as a hot spring.
Detailed explanation-4: -A geyser is a rare kind of hot spring that is under pressure and erupts, sending jets of water and steam into the air. Geysers are made from a tube-like hole in the Earth’s surface that runs deep into the crust. The tube is filled with water.
