Description of Figures
All of the above-water and underwater figures (images), except Figure 4, were taken in and around Devils Hole by Ray J. Hoffman from 1984 to 1993, in support of U.S. Geological Survey research into paleoclimatology and aquifer geochemistry in cooperation with the National Park Service. Figures 13–26 were taken in an underground environment completely devoid of natural light.
