High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Zacatón is one of a group of five interconnected sinkholes, or cenotes, located in the northeastern state of Tamaulipas, Mexico. It is the deepest water-filled sinkhole in the world with a total depth of 335 metres (1,100 ft).[DEPTHX, a NASA funded projectusing an autonomous robot has measured the underwater portion to be 319 metres (1,050 ft) deep (an air-filled 16-metre (52 ft) drop from the surface to the water accounts for the total depth)The name Zacatón comes from the free-floating islands of zacate grass which move about on the surface with the wind.Scrapings from the rock walls beneath the surface yielded at least 6 new phyla of bacteria.Since the late 1990s, Marcus Gary, a hydrogeology graduate student at the Jackson School of Geosciences at the University of Texas at Austin has studied Sistema Zacatón to better understand how the sinkholes formed and how they evolve over time.
