Summary[edit]

File information
Description

The base of the ‘wavestone’ at Gortlecka (Plate 1) was winter-flooded by Lough Gealáin (pH 8.2) when the photograph was taken, and the horizontal surface of the water contrasts strongly with the sloping and undulating lip. The lake water pH and lip shape both signify that formation cannot have occurred in the lake. Instead, the sharply-defined lip marks the former level of the (undulating) soil surface, below which solution by soil water (pH 6.0) occurred.
