6. Apply It!!! Yellowstone Hot Springs
Melted snow and rainwater seep to a depth of 3,000m, where magma chambers heat the rock of Earth’s crust.
Heated rock then heats the water to over 200C
Is the heated water more or less dense than the melted snow and rainwater?
What might cause the convection current?
