Travertine crystal growth ripples record the hydraulic history of ancient Rome’s Anio Novus aqueduct [PDF]
Travertine crystal growth ripples are used to reconstruct the early hydraulic history of the Anio Novus aqueduct of ancient Rome. These crystalline morphologies deposited within the aqueduct channel record the hydraulic history of gravity-driven ...

Viruses participate in the organomineralization of travertines. [PDF]
AbstractTravertines, which precipitate from high temperature water saturated with calcium carbonate, are generally considered to be dominated by physico-chemical and microbial precipitates. Here, as an additional influence on organomineral formation, metagenomic data and microscopic analyses clearly demonstrate that highly diverse viral, bacterial and ...

The mechanical strength of the artificial stones, containing the travertine wastes and sand
The present study investigates the development of artificial stones containing travertine powder, fine sand, and travertine sludge. The stone powder and sludge were considered as waste. The main target of this study is to reuse and recycle the travertine

Geochemistry and origin of elements in the Azarshahr travertine deposits (Eastern Azarbaijan) [PDF]
: Travertine deposits cover a vast area in the southwest of Azarshahr (East Azarbaijan province) and in some parts there are active springs which currently deposit these types of sediments.

Evaluation of uncertainties in travertine rock mass for the Antalya (Turkey) Metro tunnel excavation
The uncertainty in the measurement of rock mass is largely due to the inherently heterogeneous nature of the rock mass itself. A variety of environmental conditions influence the engineering behaviour of the rock mass.

The term ‘travertine’ encompasses a wide variety of continental carbonate rocks deposited from groundwaters and surface waters. These include, but are not limited to, mineral spring deposits, stream and lake deposits, and cave formations and are recognized by interesting morphologies such as spring mounds, fissure ridges, cascades, step pools, and ...
