Heat, water, and a unique plumbing system are all necessary ingredients for a geyser. Therefore, alterations in any of the three result in changes in the geyser’s function. Natural change within a hydrothermal system is common and includes
such things as earthquakes,
changes in the activity between connected
hydrothermal features, damage to the geyser’s plumbing
system through violent
eruptions, and deposition of sinter to the point where the underground
channels become blocked.
