Scientific paper

Over 100 gas samples from Yellowstone National Park have been analyzed by gas chromatography. The gases emitted by the thermal features are categorized according to the type of spring. The source of methane is discussed in terms of presently available information, and it is concluded that additional isotope analyses are essential to establish the source of this gas. The non-reactive gases are treated by a Rayleigh distillation process which gives a strong correlation between argon and all of the other non-reactive gases although the correlation with helium is not as well defined as for the other gases. This is interpreted to indicate a predominantly atmospheric origin for these gases.
