Hot springs are not the same as geysers, although they are related. Hot springs are simply natural springs where heated water flows to the surface, often due to geothermal activity. Geysers, on the other hand, are a specific type of hot spring that intermittently erupts, shooting water and steam into the air, typically due to the buildup of pressure from boiling water in underground chambers. Thus, while all geysers are hot springs, not all hot springs are geysers.
Eruption
not gysers
An opening in the Earth's crust, commonly referred to as a vent, fissure, or hole, allows for the escape of gases, magma, or other geological materials from beneath the surface. These openings can occur due to volcanic activity, tectonic movements, or erosion. They play a crucial role in the Earth's geological processes, including the formation of volcanoes, geysers, and hot springs. Such openings can also impact local ecosystems and human activities.
Groundwater can reach the surface through springs, where water flows naturally to the surface due to pressure or through seepage. It can also reach the surface through artesian wells, where pressure in an underground aquifer forces water to rise above the level of the aquifer. Lastly, groundwater can reach the surface through human-made structures like wells and boreholes.

Once magma breaks through the earths crust it is called"lava"
A body wave is a seismic wave that travels through Earths interior.
