5. or “dry geysers”, are holes in the ground that release water vapor and other gases. The smell of rotten eggs comes from the sulfuric acid in the steam. Fumaroles also called thermal pool, contained an array of colors depending upon water temperature, mineral or algae content, and absorption of light. Hot Spring are hot springs that periodically erupt, shooting scalding water and steam into the air. are hot springs that periodically erupt, shooting scalding water and steam into the air. Geysers hot water mixes with clay and other minerals. In the spring and fall the pots are thin and soupy; the mud bubbles and boils. In late summer they thicken and have been known to hurl hot mud 10 to 15 feet high. Mud Pot Thermal Features in Yellowstone National Park

6. Fast Facts of Daisy Geyser Daisy Geyser is part of interconnected group of geyser and hot springs Underground cracks and fissures allow water and heat to circulate between them Daisy Geyser erupts to heights of 75 feet or more On average, the duration of Daisy Geyser’s eruptions are 3 to 5 minutes

9. Riverside Geyser This isolated spring is one of the most regular geysers in Yellowstone. Its 75 foot (23 m) eruption lasts about half an hour and is followed by an interval between 5.5 to 7 hours.

10. Grand Geyser haha…. eruption of another geyser, Grand Geyser

11. Castle Geyser A steam phase follows which lasts another 10 minutes The watershoots between 60-90 feet blasts for about 15 minutes The cycle repeat. Total duration of eruption was about 50 minutes

36. At 122-140oF Whirligig’s run off channel is hot enough to burn you. Thermophiles living here use iron as energy. These chemical users are called “Chemotrophs” Whirligig Thermophiles algae, including Cyanidium, inhibit the green channel. They use light as energy (photosynthesize). These “Phototrophs” live where temperature range from 100-103oF
