The University of Sopron and Its Scientific Partners Researched Ancient Processes in Thermal Waters

Two researchers from the University of Sopron and their scientific partners have made a internationally significant discovery regarding the development of carbonate structures (stromatolites) formed by microbes. Their finding were published in the renowned scientific journal, the Scientific Reports. The new research could contribute to a better understanding of carbonate structures formed in Earth’s geological past and help uncover modern correlations of similar processes. Experts from the University of Sopron collaborated on this project with researchers from the HUN-REN Research Centre For Astronomy and Earth Sciences and the Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE).
