- 1896, Anthony Wayne Vogdes, A Bibliography Relating to the Geology, Palaeontology, and Mineral Resources:
- On the southern slope of the Sulpher Mountains, as observed immediately north of the Scott & Gillmore oil-wells, and as shown in Fig. 15, these slaty shales are bounded on the south by a line of decomposed and bleached shale, which at many points shows evidence of solfataric action.
- 1905, Census of the Philippine Islands:
- Besides the solfataric volcano Apo, the giant of the archipelago, there are some other volcanic cones lying in this region.
- 1966, Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan, page 2411:
- By the use of this relationship, the equilibrium temperature of natural solfataric gases with respect to the reaction may be estimated, provided the theoretical value of K, the chemical composition, and the pressure of natural solfataric gases are known.
- 2013, Tulasi Satyanarayana, Jennifer Littlechild, Yutaka Kawarabayasi, Thermophilic Microbes in Environmental and Industrial Biotechnology, →ISBN:
- Solfataras are found within the solfataric fields. Solfataric fields consist of soils, mud pots, and surface waters (sulfur-rich springs), heated by volcanic exhalations from the magma chambers located below them.
