DEM difference image of Mammoth Hot Springs from 2013 to 2016

Detailed Description

DEM difference image of Mammoth Hot Springs from 2013 to 2016, draped over a color mosaic from September 2013. More than 2 meters of elevation increase were detected in the outflow region downslope from Palette Spring (red colors). This was interpreted as travertine growth. Blue colors represent elevation decreases between 2013 and 2016. These could be places where travertine either collapsed or partly dissolved.
