Lake Van, home to the world's largest expanse of microbialites, has become the focus of international scientists. In a massive project led by Van Yüzüncü Yıl University (YYÜ) and involving five universities from Turkey, Italy, Poland, and China, the mystery of the underwater towers in Lake Van is being unraveled. Data obtained from the study will be compared with that of Lake Salda and the Jezero Crater on Mars.
Scientists from Türkiye, Italy, Poland, and China have taken samples from microbialites and water in Lake Van. The research will investigate the origin of the nanospheres and compare the results with samples from Lake Salda.
Scientists investigating the formation of microbialites in Lake Van collected samples by diving at different points in the lake as part of an international project. Academics aiming to determine the origin of carbonate nanospheres in the microbialites will compare the data obtained with samples from Lake Salda, and in the future, with samples expected to be brought from Mars.
Scientists who collected samples from microbialites in Lake Van will compare the results with samples from Lake Salda and, in the future, with samples brought from Mars.
Samples taken from microbialites in Lake Van will be compared with samples expected to be brought from Mars. Scientists aim to uncover clues about geological processes on Mars by investigating the origin of carbonate nanospheres in the lake.
