Architecture of Pleistocene fluvial tufa systems associated with waterfalls: El Salt (Alcoy, Spain)

El Salt is an episodic waterfall located in the city of Alcoy (Spain), Alicante. The Barxell River Source, has calcium bicarbonate waters and an estimated flow rate of 17,000 m3 / day. It is a potential tufa generator, with an estimated generation capacity of up to 1,240 t / year. The tufa deposits...
