stalagmite

A stalagmite is below a stalactite and they both grow, eventually to meet.(石笋在钟乳石下面，它们二者都在增长，最终会合。)

On the aspect of forms, there are stalagmite, stalactite, lime-flower, stone-bar, stone-bed etc.(论形态，石钟乳、石笋、石花、石芝、石柱、石床……众体皆备。)

During the formation of stalactite and stalagmite in karst caves carbonate minerals often trap gas and aqueous fluids, forming immiscible fluid inclusion population when they are crystallizing.(喀斯特溶洞中石钟乳和石笋在形成过程中，碳酸盐矿物结晶时，常常捕获周围水溶液和气体，形成不混溶流体包裹体组合。)

This is a high stalagmite about 19 meters, 20 centimeters in diameter or so, but because of their small, so called needle, not the column or stick.(这是一根高约19米的石笋，直径20厘米左右，因其细而高，所以称其为针，而不是柱或棒。)

Do you know what is a stalagmite?(你知道什么是石笋吗？)

In one place, near at hand, a stalagmite had been slowly growing up from the ground for ages, builded by the water-drip from a stalactite overhead.(不远处有个石笋，已有些年月，它是由头顶上的钟乳石滴水所形成的。)

Note the massive ice stalagmite growing up from the ground to meet the ice tube… will the water freeze before the twain shall meet?(现在看看这些从地上“长”起来的巨大的冰柱，水会在它和和“冰管”连住之前冻住么？)

Once a stalactite and a stalagmite are connected, then it is called a column.(当钟乳石与石笋连在一起，称之为圆柱。)

There a highest stalagmite in the world - — Dinghu Peak.(在那有世界第一高的石笋---鼎湖峰。)

On the basis of the mechanism of stalagmite growth, this papaer presents leading thickness measurements of stalagmite microlayer.(在分析石笋微层形成机理的基础上，介绍了石笋微层厚度测量的主要方法及影响因素。)
