E nānā i nā Kumuhana Ola Kūikawā Mai Ka Wā kahiko
ʻO ka Flower's Cove (ʻo ia hoʻiʻo Flowers Flowers, e like me ka pūnaewele kauhale kaulana), aia ma ke alanui 430 ma ke Komohana o Newfoundland, he kūlanakauhale kaiākea nani a maikaʻiʻole naʻe me ka hiʻona maikaʻi loa - nā hua'ōpoli. Ua hoʻokumuʻia kēia mau papahana, i loaʻa ma kahakai, i ka wā iʻike ai nā'ōpū i ka Iapetus Ocean kahiko i kā lākouʻai. Ma muli o ka wai e kokoke kokoke ana i ke kahakai, he lepo carbonate mai nā pōhaku pōhaku kalaiwa, ua hana kēia kiʻi kiʻi kiʻi i nāʻano kūikawā a mākou i kapa aku ai i nā thrombolite.
ʻO nā'ākōkū ka nui he mau kapuaʻi ka lōʻihi a nānā aku i kahi mea e like me ka papa inoaʻo Italian panini roll made from rock. Hōʻike nā kānakaʻepekema i nā'ākōbolū e like me nā "clotted" hanu no ka mea,ʻaʻole i hanaʻia ka'ōlohelohe o nā alakupapaʻu, i hana likeʻia a me ka lā i kahi 3.5 miliona makahiki i hala. I kou nānāʻana i ka thrombolite, hiki i ka paʻakikī ke noʻonoʻo i ka hikiʻana i nā meaola ola ke hoʻokuʻu i nā mineral pono'ī mai ka wai e hana i kahiʻano nui a pōhaku.
Aia nā'āpana'ōpū i kahi mau wahi ma ka Honua. ʻO nā'ālika'ōlohelohe o Lake Clifton, Australia, uaʻano like me nā mea i loaʻa ma ka Flower's Cove. ʻO ka hapa nui o ka'ōpū ma Flower's Cove he kahua kikowaena e hoʻopuniʻia e nā'āpana e like me nā paʻi paʻi lima. Ua hāʻule a haʻihaʻi paha kekahi i nā makahiki, akā, eʻikeʻoe i ka nui o nā meaʻino e nānā.
ʻO nā kuhikuhiʻana i ka Thrombolites of Flower Cove
He wahi maikaʻiʻo Flower's Cove e hāpai i kou mau wāwae ma kāu huakaʻi ma Newfoundland a me Labrador Route 430 mai St.
Anthony aʻo L'Anse ma nā Meadows i ka Paliʻo Rocky.
He pōkole a alalahi ke ala. Ke hikiʻoe i ka Flower's Cove, hiki iāʻoe ke hele i ka hoʻolālā thrombolite ma ke kaʻaʻana i ke alanui 430 (eʻikeʻoe i kahi wahi liʻiliʻi, kahi i kahakahaʻia e hiki ai iāʻoe ke huki i ke alaʻaoʻao e kaʻa ai) kokoke i ka hoʻomakaʻana o ka papa papa hele i ka Paila o Marjorie.
He mea maʻalahi ka uhiʻana i kēia poho uhiʻia no ka mea eʻike ana ia i kahi keʻokeʻoʻulaʻula a me kahi hōʻailona hōʻailona e kuhikuhi i ka kuhikuhi e pono aiʻoe ke hele eʻike i nā thrombolites. E lawe i ka papaʻaina a hahai i ke alakai kahakai. No ka wiliʻana i ka wīwī, e pana ma ka halepule keʻokeʻo ma ka'ākau o ke alahaka ma ke alanui 430 a hele ma'ō aku o ka mauʻu i ke ala. E huli pono i ke ala a hahai i ka thrombolites.
ʻO ka huakaʻi he alakai hele ma nā wahi ākea a me kahi ala pōhaku ma kahakai. He pālahalaha a maʻalahi hoʻi ka hoʻokeleʻana. Inā maikaʻi kaʻilikai, e mālama i kahi piko; ʻikeʻoe i kahi mau papa pākeke kokoke i ka wai kahi eʻai aiʻoe a leʻaleʻa i kaʻike. ʻAʻohe palapala hoʻokomo.
