Geothermometry and Circulation Behavior of the Hot Springs in Yunlong County of Yunnan in Southwest China

Table 5

Calculated underground temperatures from the thermal groundwater using quartz steam loss geothermometers [5] and dissolved silica-enthalpy graph considering the maximum steam loss [6].
