Ecolog:
(Sorry I can't be of help, Malcolm), but can anyone shed any light (beyond
the Wikipedia page) on the effects of such phenomena as the Crystal Geyser
on the Green River (Utah, USA)?
Specifically, what does the water contain, and how does the (CO2) geyser
system work? Are there geysers in the river bed?
In general, are big rivers (and small rivers) studied over time at different
downstream locations to chart the chemical changes, sediment loads, seasonal
changes etc.?
