Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Formation of Travertine and Siliceous Sinter by the Vegetation of Hot Springs In New Zealand the presence of algae in the hot springs'on the south shore of Lake Taupo was first noted by Hochstetter, who says the dark emerald-green growth covered the ground where the warm water flowed. The specimens collected by him are described in the Botany Of the Novara Expedition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Formation of Travertine Shrubs

Download or read book The Formation of Travertine Shrubs written by Allan Pentecost and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structure and microbiology of active travertines is described from Canary and Minerva Springs, with emphasis on 'shrubs' growing in terracette pools. These dendritic growth of aragonite consist of intricately branched sprays containing thousands of radiating needles. Shrub microstructure could be explained by the principe of 'Keimauslese' and the preferential elongation of sharp protuberances in a rapidly depositing environment. The shrubs, and other active travertines, contain unicellular and filamentous bacteria. Estimates of total bacteria numbers ranged from 0.6-1.7 x 10(5) mm(-3) but biomass was low, and always less than 1% of the travertine by weight. No evidence was found to indicate that bacteria played a role in shrub growth or morphology, but crystal trapping on bacterial strings may influence travertine fabrics on cascades. The shrubs are considered to have developed by inorganic processes, in hot spring waters supersaturated with aragonite.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: uring the spring of 1960, an uncle showed me a ‘petrifying spring’ near Plaxtol in Kent Dwhere twigs had been encased in a calcareous jacket. A twig was collected and having - cently been given I. Evan’s Observer’s Book of Geology by my parents, I found a photograph of another petrifying spring and an explanation of its origin. In those days, Derbyshire was too far for a holiday destination, and I took little further interest until a research studentship with Professor G. E. Fogg became available in 1971. Tony Fogg had recently moved to the University College of North Wales, Bangor and the research was to be into cyanobacterium mats, with fieldwork along the Red Sea coast. The fieldwork never materialised but my interest in algal mats had been aroused. A chance stroll along the Bangor shore revealed beautifully calcified cya- bacterium mats, and Tony generously allowed me to investigate these instead. The old Plaxtol collection was retrieved and yielded abundant cyanobacteria. It became apparent that here was a wealth of information about a rock whose formation was so rapid, that the process could be studied in days rather than years – an exceptional state of affairs. A search of the literature also revealed that the rock, a form of travertine, had other unusual features.
