Grand prismatic spring, the largest in the
United States and the third largest in the world. Located in Yellowstone national Park in the Middle basin of geysers. Bright colors of the source-is the result of the activity of pigmented bacteria that exist on the edges of the source with mineral-rich water. The color of bacteria varies from green to red and depends on the ratio of chlorophyll and carotenoids in their population. In summer, the bacteria become orange-red, and in winter usually are dark green. The center of the source is sterile due to the high water temperature. The blue color of the water in the center of the source is a consequence of the diffusion of the water molecules of the fluorescent light beams of the blue wavelength range. Although this effect occurs in all water bodies, in a Large prismatic spring it is particularly intense due to the combination of water purity and depth of the reservoir.
