Great Basin

The main deposits of freshwater diatomite were laid down in large lakes. Many of these deposits in the western United States formed during glacial times, when the local climate was wetter. Several tens of square kilometers in Nevada west of Tonopah are covered with diatomite as are other large areas in the Great Basin. [Pg.56]

Minerals derived from evaporation of saline solutions have not been extensively examined. Evaporitic salts from the western U.S. Great Basin concentrated Li (5 Li = +31.8 to +32.6 Tomascak et al. 2003). Evaporation of thermal waters from Yellowstone yielded travertine with extremely low 5 Li (-4.8 Sturchio and Chan 2003), offset from its coexisting fluid by -ll.l%o. Such evaporites, where preserved in the sedimentary record, could afford an opportunity to examine variations in spring water compositions and hence information on hydrothermal processes over time. [Pg.184]

Rodent species differ in their ability to smell buried seeds those from arid climates perform better than species from mesic climates. Specifically, Panamint kangaroo rats, Dipodomys panamintinus, from arid and semiarid areas of the Great Basin Desert in North America were the only species that found deep caches... [Pg.5]

Storm of Jan. 8-11, 1968. Analysis of this storm shows that the cold front which moved into northern California during January 9 was preceded by a strong high pressure cell over the Great Basin. Considerable lifting of the air mass over the cold dome resulted well in advance of the cold front. Light precipitation started in northern California on... [Pg.472]

These stalactites in a cave in the Great Basin National Park in Nevada are deposits of calcium carbonate formed as drops of water have evaporated. Calcium forms a small, highly charged cation and consequently gives rise to rigid structures. [Pg.797]
