Fumarole Details
Also known as steam vents, fumaroles are cracks in the Earth's surface similar to those that produce geysers and hot springs, except that they are fed with less groundwater, so their eruptions are more modest. Fumeroles typically release hot steam, sometimes with an audible hiss or even a roar.
