| The lakes of Plitvice are a result of century-old processes and the sedimentation of chalk, which is abundantly available in the waters of this karst area. | WIKI |
| The complex processes of dissolution and sedimentation of limestone require specific climatic preconditions. | WIKI |
| Sedimentation processes[edit] | WIKI |
| A unique process occurring at the Plitvice Lakes, however, is the sedimentation of water-bound chalk at certain places. | WIKI |
| With regard to other similar phenomena in the world, at Plitvice Lakes the sedimentation of chalk and the formation of tufa happens dynamically all along the watercourse and in various forms (fluviatile sedimentation). | WIKI |
| Another unique and distinctive feature are the natural factors, particularly the influences of the vegetation in the process of sedimentation. | WIKI |
| Preconditions for sedimentation[edit] | WIKI |
| Measurements of carbon dioxide quantities in the water show that they correspond with continuous sedimentation processes in the Plitvice Lakes area. | WIKI |
| The sedimentation of calcium carbonate from the water occurs only at certain temperature conditions (only above 14xc2xa0xc2xb0C), e.g. | WIKI |
| [18] Since sedimentation only occurs under warm, humid climate conditions, these phenomena have only been occurring since the end of the last ice age. | WIKI |
| At the ground of Lake Kozjak a constant yearly sedimentation of 0,8 millimeters during the past 3,000 years has been ascertained. | WIKI |
| Tufa barriers are the result of continuous sedimentation processes along natural thresholds. | WIKI |
| Up until the 21st century, it was supposed that plants extract carbon dioxide from the water for photosynthesis purposes and that in return oxygen is released, thus resulting in the sedimentation of hydrogen carbonate (phytogenesis). | WIKI |
| For sedimentation to occur it is essential that the water be decelerated, aerated and sprayed. | WIKI |
| The mosses of the Plitvice Lakes waterfalls provide a substrate for sedimentation, generating travertine (tufa). | WIKI |
| Excessive plant cover has adverse effects on mineral sedimentation. | WIKI |
| These sediments are the results of century-old sedimentation processes. | WIKI |
| Living organisms play a decisive role in the sedimentation of calcium carbonate in Plitvice. | UNESCO |
| More concretely, highly specialized mosses, algae and bacteria enable and enhance the sedimentation, thereby contributing to the creation of the natural barriers. | UNESCO |
