Geysers By: T. Fox

What Is the Definition of Geyser? 1. A hot spring where water intermittently boils, sending a tall column of water and steam into the air

Geysers Around the World Beppu in Japan Rincón de la Vieja in Costa Rica The Old Woman’s Corner Valley of Geysers in the Russian Far East El Tatio in the Andes Mountains of northern Chile Rotorua in New Zealand Huanglong in central China Yellow Stone

Facts About Geysers Mainly clustered near active volcanic areas Formed by water seeping through the ground and coming into contact with rock that is heated by magma The world’s tallest active geyser is Yellowstone Eruptions similar to geysers have erupted on the surface of moons in the solar system Ex: Saturn’s moon Enceladus and Neptune’s moon Triton
