Convection in geysers occurs when underground water is heated by magma or hot rocks, causing it to become less dense and rise to the surface. As the water rises, it creates a pressure buildup in the surrounding cooler water, which remains denser and sinks. Once the pressure reaches a critical point, the superheated water rapidly erupts to the surface, creating the characteristic geyser eruption. This cycle of heating, rising, cooling, and erupting continues, driving the convection process.
Geysers primarily work through the process of convection. Heat from the Earth's interior warms up the underground water, causing it to rise due to its lower density, creating pressure until it erupts through the surface as a geyser.
No. The crust is rigid; it does not allow convection.

There are supposed to be 1000 geysers in the whole wide world.
Iceland is known for its many geysers.

There are fewer than 700 geysers in the world today and these geysers exist on every continent, apart from Antarctica. About half of the world's geysers can be found in Yellowstone Park.
