Best Answer

At times, fierce, boiling waters within a hot spring (such as Crested Pool) can explode, shooting water into the air, acting much like a geyser. It is believed, however, that in the case of Crested Pool, no constrictions block the flow of water to the surface. The spring's wide mouth and 42-foot depth provide a natural conduit for superheated water to circulate continuously to the surface.

What causes convection currents in a hot spring?

Well, just like soup's density expands or decreases at the bottom and top of a pot because of the heat, so does a hot spring because of the shallow magma chamber that causes the water to heat up to over 200°C. Hope this helped! :D
