What reading level is The Formation of Travertine And Siliceous Sinter By the Vegetation of Hot Spring book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These colors are due to the presence of microscopic algae, which are not easily recognizable in this deposit, owing to their covering of travertine. In the cooler springs and channels similar vegetation forms the bright green, orange, or brown membrane-like sheets or masses of jelly, without apparent vegetable structure.
WEED. ] 'GENERAL OCCURRENCE OF THE ALG. E. 631 The true nature of the silken yellow filaments found in the bowls and channels of even the hottest springs is more apparent, thou...gh the yellow color is due to sulphur incrusting the algae threads. The intimate relation of these algous growths to the deposits of newly formed travertine suggests at once that the algae are encrusted by the carbonate of lime, and so aid in the formation of the tufa. While this is probably true, the chief work of these plants is the separation from the water of the carbonate of lime, which they cause by their abstraction of carbonic acid. Owing to this action, a common function of vegetation, such growths are an important factor in the formation of travertine by the Mammoth Hot Springs waters.
