Abstract
For better understanding of the processes involved in the travertine development, it is essential to know the basic chemical principles (Chap. 2), the sedimentological features (Chap. 3), and the analytical methods applied for travertine studies (Chap. 4). After reviewing vital parts of the knowledge, we introduced a wide range of sedimentological, geochemical, and biological analyses performed mainly for the travertine in Japan. Our results brought new insights into geomicrobiology of the laminated carbonates.
