- Hot spring - Wikipedia
A hot spring, hydrothermal spring, or geothermal spring is a spring produced by the emergence of geothermally heated groundwater onto the surface of the Earth The groundwater is heated either by shallow bodies of magma (molten rock) or by circulation through faults to hot rock deep in the Earth's crust

Mesothermal springs: temperatures between 35°C and 45°C (95°F to 113°F) Hyperthermal springs : temperatures between 45°C and 100°C (113°F to 212°F) Superthermal springs : temperatures above 100°C (212°F)

Hot springs around the world showcase the incredible power of geothermal energy, with some reaching extreme temperatures due to their proximity to volcanic activity and other geological features Here’s a look at the top 6 hottest hot springs globally, where the intense heat is a key feature
- Geothermal Springs - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Geothermal waters from springs and drilled wells usually have temperatures well below the boiling temperature, and their apparent excess heat is due to deep underground circulation and subsequent uprising to surface or shallower horizons

Geothermal springs are not only deadly environments because their water reaches boiling temperatures but because their waters usually have high concentrations of sulfur There are microorganisms called thermophiles that thrive in hot springs
- How do thermal springs provide heat - Thermal Engineering
At its core, the heat from thermal springs originates from the Earth’s interior The temperature inside the Earth increases with depth, a phenomenon known as the geothermal gradient This gradient varies but typically rises about 25°C to 30°C per kilometer in the Earth’s crust
- The Geothermal Origins of Natural Hot Springs - Our . . . - Our Planet Today
Hot springs, also known as thermal springs, are naturally occurring bodies of water that emerge from the earth’s surface at elevated temperatures These fascinating geological features are found in various regions of the world, often in areas of active volcanic or geothermal activity
- Hot Springs: What is It, How Are Hot Springs Formed
The water issuing from a hot spring is heated by geothermal heat, i e , heat from the Earth's mantle In general, the temperature of rocks within the earth increases with depth The rate of temperature increase with depth is known as the geothermal gradient
