Pressures can dramatically increase, causing the rock to melt.
If enough water pressure builds under the surface of the ground, it can cause the water to burst through cracks, forming geysers or springs. This phenomenon occurs when underground aquifers become pressurized and the water is forced to flow upwards through openings in the Earth's crust.
The layer that includes the land making up the continents and the land under the oceans is the Earth's crust. The crust is the outermost layer of the Earth and is divided into two types: continental crust, which makes up the continents, and oceanic crust, which underlies the ocean basins.
The layer that includes the land making up continents and the land under the ocean is the crust, which is the outermost layer of the Earth's surface. It is divided into continental crust, which forms the continents, and oceanic crust, which lies beneath the oceans.
Oceanic crust is more dense than continental crust. All that water weight compresses the heck out of the material in the plate and also the oceanic crust contains larger percentages of denser elements such as magnesium and iron than the continental crust which also contributes to it's higher density. This sets the conditions for what happens. The more dense oceanic crust will "dive under" continental crust because it is more dense, and all because of the difference in densities.
The part of the Earth's crust that is not covered by ocean water is called the continental crust. It is thicker and less dense than the oceanic crust and primarily makes up the continents.
Jupiter's moons - Europa and Ganymede possibly have oceans of liquid water under their crust. Saturn's moon - Enceladus also has a possible ocean of water under it's crust.
Scientists believe that there is liquid water, under the crust of Europa.
Because the oceanic crust is under water in the ocean and a continental crust is land such as the continents
under water mostly but you can find them on the crust!
The oceanic crust, or the crust of the earth that is under water, is between 15,840 feet and 31,680 feet thick. The continental crust, or the crust not covered in ocean water, is between 105,600 feet and 158,400 feet thick.

it comes from under the earth's crust
If we look beneath water, no matter how deep, we will always find the rock of the crust of the earth. You might have heard the term "ball of rock" applied to the earth, and the crust is the outer covering of that ball of rock. All of the world's oceans sit on top of the crust of the earth.
you become dehydrated
You can not become an under water elephant but you can buy goggles a safty suit and water proof trousers and you can go under water?
liquid water, under its icy crust.
the water will become dirty
