Example text

This kind of environment is usually highly fractured and a stark permeability contrast to the surroundings enables the upwelling of heated water from depth to the surface (Caine et al. 1996; Curewitz and Karson 1997; Evans et al. 1997; Faulkner et al. 2010). Water temperature is dependent on the fault dip: if it is vertical, the water loses less heat on the way to the surface, which results in warmer springs. The more the fault deviates from vertical, the more heat is lost on its way to the surface, resulting in ever lower spring temperatures.

This fact shows that even before the arrival of the Romans, thermal springs had a specific place in the cultural landscape of the area. During the Roman Empire they were curative destinations, especially Aquae Iassae (Varaždinske toplice), Aquae Balissae (Daruvarske toplice), Aquae Vivae (Krapinske toplice), Aquae Vitae (unknown location) and Ad fines (Topusko), with many archaeological remains standing to this day. Mineral springs can also be recognized through toponyms. Highly mineralized cold springs are deemed Slatina (literally salty spring) and Kiselica (sour spring), referring to high dissolved CO2 gas.
