The excretions of earth? seems unfamiliar? Yes! it is. It really not only sounds crazy but seema a little out of this world thing. But the reality is that earth really do that geo-excretion thing. These geo excretions can be either in liquid form or gases. So, the words life Mud Dome, Mud Volcano are used for the areas that are rich in that type of activity that leads to the formation of bubbling mud thing. There are many processes that lead to the activity like this. The Hot water actually get mixed to mud and deposits at the surface. Mud Volcanoes are ussually found at the subduction zones and about 700 are being discovered. Temperatures as compared to the live Volcanoes are much cooler in these.
It is believed that these structures have roots that are very deep sometimes to many Kilometers underground and they serve as the check valves of the high underground pressures.
