English: The temperature scale is in degrees Fahrenheit.
Geysers are hot springs that episodically erupt columns of water. They occur in few places on Earth. The highest concentration of geysers anywhere is in the Upper Geyser Basin of the Yellowstone Hotspot Volcano (northwestern Wyoming, USA). Spouter Geyser is located in the Black Sand Basin of Yellowstone's Upper Geyser Basin. The geyser's subcircular basin is about 7 x 8 meters in size. Bright white geyserite covers the basin floor and consists in part of low to moderately low, mounded, closely-packed, columnar geyserite masses. The centrally-located vent is irregular in shape and about 0.5 x 1 meter in size. Eruptions are frequent and usually one to two hours in duration. True intervals (= eruption end to next eruption start) are about two hours. Two principal runoff channels exist - one drains water westward to Iron Spring Creek. The other drains to the north toward Opalescent Pool, then heads west toward the creek. |
