Many spring deposits throughout the world are characterized by spectacular deposits of
calcium carbonate that are formed of various combinations of aragonite and calcite, and in …

Travertine-depositing hot springs can generate various carbonate minerals with or without
the participation of microorganisms. They thus serve as good natural laboratories to study …

Abstract In the Denizli Basin (Turkey), located in the western Anatolian extensional province,
travertine and tufa deposition has been an ongoing process for at least 600,000 years …

Petrographical and petrophysical properties of the Turkish Ballık-Belevi travertine shrubs
demonstrate the necessity of reservoir oriented classifications for shrub-related lithotypes …

Fluid/rock interaction represents a major process in the formation of calcitic or aragonitic
travertine and tufa (CATT). In most cases, CATT is associated to limestone dissolution …

This work studies a fossil system of perched and fluvial travertines passing distally to fluvial
tufas within a volcanic ravine. Sedimentology, petrology and geochemistry of fossil …

The relative influences of biotic and abiotic processes on travertine fabrics are still not well
understood, despite increasing interest in the last decade to better understand the record of …

The extent of impact‐generated hydrothermal activity in the 24 km sized Ries impact
structure has been controversially discussed. To date, mineralogical and isotopic …

A multidisciplinary study was carried out on an Upper Pleistocene travertine mound
(Montirone Hill; Abano Terme, south of Padova, Veneto, Italy) with the aim of developing a …

Two active spring vent pools at Shiqiang (Yunnan Province, China) are characterized by a
complex array of precipitates that coat the wall around the pool and the narrow ledges that …
