Geographic location
Big fountain intermittent spring is a fountain-based embassy in Huangshi National Park, Wyoming, is located in the Huade Lake area of the resting basin. Extract once every 9 to 15 hours, the water column height can reach 67 meters. This is the only foreseeable intermittent spring in the rest of the spring basin.
Landscape Characteristics
The large fountain is sprayed 9 to 15 hours. The hair is between 23 meters to 67 meters. The usual duration is about one hour, but the duration of more than two hours has also been. The duration of the eruption is affected by intervals and can predict approximately two hours accuracy intervals. This prediction can be refined to add or subtract for 15 minutes, and it can be observed from the crater from the crater during the period. Although this behavior mode is observed in most time, there is also a so-called "wild phase" activity in this period, and the outbreak is greatly extended between duration and outbreak, which can last for three days. The burst of intermittent spring is unpredictable, then until the wild phase occurs, it will return to normal intervals.
Fountain genesis
Intermittent spring is thus formed: in the volcanic activity area, the hot lava can increase the water temperature of the surrounding formation, even to water vapor. These water vapors encountered the cracks in the rock layer rose along the crack. When the temperature drops below the vaporization point, it is condensed into water having a high temperature. These accumulated water, as well as the upper groundwater in the upper floor rises to the ground along the formation, and erupted once a period of time, forming a habitant spring. The water ejected in the sprinkler, often contains minerals, which will deposit when moisture evaporate or re-influence the surface. Over time, the accumulated minerals can form a variety of strange shapes, like volcanic cones, like a volcanic, and sometimes "manufacturing" outlet mineral sediments. Although the scientists have unveiled the mystery of hazard, people still poured for its majestic and magnificent eruptions.
