Origin of the Whewellite-Rich Rock Crust in the Lower Pecos Region of Southwest Texas and Its Significance to Paleoclimate Reconstructions
A calcium oxalate (whewellite)-rich crust occurs on exposed limestone surfaces in dry rock and open air shelters in the Lower Pecos region of southwest Texas. The crust, which also contains gypsum and clay, formed over silica-rich limestone during the Holocene. SEM and optical photomicrographs reveal similarities between whewellite microstructures and the lichen Aspicilia calcarea. This desert lichen is known to produce calcium oxalate, and has b…
