Submarine Springs Feed Arid Persian Gulf Shore
A historic account describes the Persian Gulf coast near Babrin as one of Earth's hottest, rainless regions where a sizeable population survives on fresh water from underwater springs. Divers use a weighted bag to scoop water from jets, then ascend with the flow to refill the bag and repeat. The springs likely originate from Osman’s green hills about 500 to 600 miles away.
