Answer to Question 1

A hot, wet geothermal resource useful for its stored thermal energy

Answer to Question 2

Geysers are natural hot springs that reach temperatures high enough to boil and intermittently eject a column of water and steam into the air. Water is superheated and when the pressure is released at the top, an eruption occurs.
