They are derived from calcareous sediments of different degrees of purity.
2.
The northern region consists of calcareous sediments that have shown high permeabilities.
3.
Calcareous sediment that sinks below the lysocline dissolves, as a result no limestone can be formed below this depth.
4.
Chloride waters are evident in some inland wells in the northern half of the country and are likely a result of the dissolution of salts within the calcareous sediments.
5.
Below this depth, calcium carbonate begins to dissolve in the ocean, and only non-calcareous sediments are stable, such as siliceous ooze or pelagic red clay.
6.
Rhizoliths are formed through the transport of dissolved calcareous sediments, where high amounts of Ca 2 + in the rhizosphere can lead to the formation of encrustations around roots termed rhizoliths.
7.
Similarly to the nearby Mount Sodom ( Jebel Usdum ), the peninsula is largely made up of white calcareous sediment containing beds of salt and gypsum, rising to on its eastern side.
8.
Likely occurring in the Pliocene, it was followed by deposits of layers of detritic and calcareous sediments, that included brownish-red alluvial layers, along the island's flanks and beach.
9.
In areas away from paleo-volcanic centers, thick sedimentary clastic rocks with sporadic limestone horizons and intercalated calcareous sediments, marls and / or coal seams were formed during the Miocene to Pliocene.
10.
It tends to grow in wet habitats, such as on river bluffs, river bottoms, and flatwoods, and generally over basic substrates, such as mafic rocks, shells, or calcareous sediment.
