Karst Hydrogeology and Geomorphology is a fully revised and updated
version of the extensively used and widely cited "Karst
Geomorphology and Hydrology" published in 1989. This systems
orientated book is based on the authors' own teaching, research,
consulting and international experience and includes wide
international citations and illustrations
This edition features a stronger emphasis on karst hydrogeology,
applied aspects of karst and practical problems of karst as well as
computer modelling. New developments in the field such as ground
penetrating radar, cosmogenic exposure age dating and mass
spectrometer techniques are evaluated
The book provides a comprehensive sequenced discussion covering
the significant features of karst rocks, the chemistry and kinetics
of their dissolution, regional dissolution and carbon sequestration
rates as well as fundamentals of hydrogeology with emphasis on the
distinctive triple porosity of karst aquifers, cavern genesis,
modelling of karst aquifers, the nature and palaeo-environmental
importance of cave deposits, karst landforms at the surface,
palaeokarst, applied karst problems, sustainable management and
conservation of karst resources.
Karst Hydrogeology and Geomorphology is an invaluable reference
for students of karst studies, karst geomorphology and groundwater
hydrogeology as well as hydrogeologists, geomorphologists and civil
engineers practicing in regions with karst rocks.
