Vector plots of aqueous phase flow (kg/s) for a model with 5 × 1 × 5 blocks (500 m in the x-direction, 100 m in the y-direction, and 500 m in the z-direction) with top and bottom bounding layers of infinite heat capacity. Pattern snapshots are taken after a 1 second, b 1000 years, and c 1 million years of the quiescent period. Visually the pattern stabilizes after 1000 years
