Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Kalktuffnase im Muschelkalkgebiet bei Glatt (Dorf bei Sulz am Neckar am gleichnamigen Fluss Glatt, Nebenfluss des Oberen Neckars). Aus kohlesäurehaltigem, kalkigem Wasser mehrerer Karstquellen ausgefällter Kalk, auf dem Moospflanzen überkrustet werden, aber dennoch wachsen, so dass ein nasenartiges Gebilde entsteht. Diese und ähnliche Erscheinungen treten auf der Schwäbischen Alb und in Nebentälern des Oberen Neckars öfters auf (anderes Foto: Image:Karstwasserrinne_NSG-Diessener-Tal_Neckar-Tributar-Diessen.jpg).
Am Talhang, ca. 1000 m westlich des Dorfes, wurden früher mächtige Kalktuffablagerungen abgebaut („Butzenstein“). Kalkhaltiges Wasser tritt auch rezent an einer stauenden Schicht des verkarsteten Muschelkalks aus mehreren Schichtquellen aus, vernässt aber auch den gesamten Talhang auf ca. 100 m Breite, so dass hier eine Quellflur (üppiges Feucht-Biotop, vgl. Foto: Image:Karst-Quellflur_Naehe-Sulz-Neckar.jpg) entstanden ist.

English: Huge deposition of Travertine, originating from “cold” (ambient temperature) water of karst springs, as opposed to “hot springs”, which originate from the earth’s crust. This type of Travertine mounds are a phenomenon found in landscapes where karstified Muschelkalk or karstified Upper Jurassic prevail. The mound in the photo is on the valley’s slope of river Glatt, a tributary of upper river Neckar), ca. 1000 m west of the village “Glatt”. The slop’s karstwater emerges from an impounding layer in the Muschelkalk. Ca. 100 m of the slope is a soggy biotope (photo: Image:Karst-Quellflur_Naehe-Sulz-Neckar.jpg).
