[Geysers] Fountain & Morning

[Ralph Taylor]

Mike Keller reported that Morning Geyser did indeed erupt.  I received the
data logger info for Fountain Geyser (I don't think it would pick up Morning
Geyser overflow, but can't be positive) and recently finished the analysis.
Unfortunately there is a gap from 9 December to 19 December, but I have the
data from 19 December to 2 February.  I won't get the data past that date
for some time, and I suspect there is a gap following the 2 February
download also.
 
Up to the end of the previous data on 9 December, Fountain was still
averaging about five hour intervals, with a range from 3 to 8 hours.
However, when the data resumes on 19 December the intervals were averaging
over six hours and on 26 December they jumped to eight to nine hours, with
some in excess of 13 hours.  At that time durations climbed from 25 minutes
to 35-40 minutes.
 
>From 1 January 2006 to 29 January intervals varied from 8h0m to 15h30m,
averaging about 11 hours.  Then on 29 January the intervals suddenly dropped
to the eight hour range, varying from six to ten hours until the end of data
on 2 February.
 
That doesn't directly tell us about Morning Geyser, but it certainly shows
that SOMETHING was up in late December and January. 
 
We are working on a new GOSA website, and I hope to announce it soon.  We
are posting many of the graphs of intervals there, and I'll have the
Fountain Geyser data there soon.
