White Dome Geyser, Geyser in Yellowstone National Park, United States.

White Dome Geyser features a 12-foot-high geyserite cone formation and produces eruptions reaching heights of 30 feet in the Lower Geyser Basin.

The geyser served as an emblem for the Yellowstone Library and Museum Association, representing the natural forces within the national park system.

Scientists discovered Thermus aquaticus bacteria near White Dome Geyser, leading to advances in DNA research through polymerase chain reaction procedures.

Visitors can observe the geyser from Firehole Lake Drive, with eruptions occurring every 15 minutes to 3 hours and lasting approximately 2 minutes.

The geyser displays a pattern of preliminary water spitting before main eruptions, followed by a combination of steam and liquid spray afterwards.
