In certain regions the geothermal gradient can be increased considerably due to the magmatic process ([[:File:Strokkur Geyser,Iceland.png|Figure 2]]). Most of the areas of geothermal interest are situated in volcanic regions. In many places of our planet, hydrothermal evidence can be seen on the surface, provided that geological conditions are favorable.
