Andernach Geyser, (Germany), the world's highest cold-water geyser Herľany, (Slovakia), first eruption in 1870. Cold-water geysers are geysers that have eruptions whose water spurts are propelled by CO 2 bubbles, instead of the hot steam which drives the more familiar hot-water geysers: The gush of a cold-water geyser is identical to the spurt from a freshly-opened bottle of soda pop.
A data pack (or fact pack) is a pre-made database that can be fed to a software, such as software agents, game, Internet bots or chatterbots, to teach information and facts, which it can later look up. [1]
It is a fountain-type geyser that erupts jets ranging in height up to 80 feet (24 m) or more, with most eruptions containing at least a few bursts that reach 40 to 50 feet. Intervals (= eruption start to eruption start) vary from year to year but are commonly about 4.5 to 6 hours, with occasional longer intervals of 11 to 12 hours.
It became the largest geyser field in the Southern Hemisphere after the destruction of many of the New Zealand geysers, and is the third largest geyser field in the world. The salient feature of these geysers is that the height of their eruptions is very low, the tallest being only six metres (20 ft) high, but with steam columns that can be ...
The Geysers is the world's largest geothermal field [15] spanning an area of around 30 square miles (78 km 2) in Sonoma, Lake and Mendocino counties in California, centered in the area of Geyser Canyon and Cobb Mountain.

Old Faithful is a cone geyser in Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, United States. It was named in 1870 during the Washburn–Langford–Doane Expedition and was the first geyser in the park to be named. [3] [4] It is a highly predictable geothermal feature and has erupted every 44 minutes to two hours since 2000. [5]

[1] It typically erupts every 6–10 minutes. [2] Its usual height is 15–20 metres (49–66 ft), although it can sometimes erupt up to 40 metres ...
