Geyser, hot spring that intermittently spouts jets of steam and water. The term is derived from the Icelandic word ‘geysir,’ meaning ‘to gush.’ Geysers result from the heating of groundwater by shallow bodies of magma. They are generally associated w
The setting of the watery scene is not unlike the Silfra Fissure in Iceland’s Þingvellir National Park. It’s the only place in the world where you can swim between two tectonic plates – and essentially two continents – making it a top-rated dive site and one for the bucket list...
Strike-slip faults are widespread, and many are found at the boundary between obliquely converging oceanic and continentaltectonic plates. Well-known terrestrial examples include theSan Andreas Fault, which, during theSan Francisco earthquake of 1906, had a maximum movement of 6 metres (20 feet), ...
The length of faults ranges from 0.4 to 106 km, totaling 437.6 km. Remarkably, most of these faults are oriented in the NW-SE direction (Figure 4b) due to the collision of the Arabian and Iranian plates that ultimately formed the Zagros Mountains chain [93]. As shown in Table A1 and ...

Global mantle flow models predict a southward motion of the Hawaiian hotspot. This, in combination with a plate motion reconstruction connecting Pacific and African plates through Antarctica, predicts the Hawaiian track correctly since the date of the bend, but predicts the chain to be too far ...
