A multi–methodological approach to reconstruct the configuration of a travertine fissure ridge system: The case of the Cukor quarry (Süttő, Gerecse Hills, Hungary)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Geomorphology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2019.106836
Abstract: Abstract Travertines are continental carbonates that precipitate from spring waters, mainly due to CO2 degassing. They are widely quarried as building stone, which has led to numerous (often abandoned) travertine quarry outcrops. These and other… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.sedgeo.2020.105706
Abstract: Abstract Genetic and diagenetic processes of travertine were examined at Futamata hot spring, where both active and inactive (subfossil and fossil) travertines are present. Geochemical and geomicrobiological analyses of active travertines reveal that abiotic process… read more here.

Travertine deposition and diagenesis in Ca-deficiency perched hot spring systems: A case from Shihuadong, Tengchong, China
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Sedimentary Geology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.sedgeo.2020.105827
Abstract: Abstract Travertines are generally considered as carbonate deposits related to Ca-rich hot springs. Ca-deficiency hot springs, however, can also produce travertines under suitable conditions and little is known about the travertine deposition and diagenesis in… read more here.
