Analytical and numerical study of dolomite sinkholes in Centurion South Africa
… into deep hollow compartments located in karstic stratum. These subsequent surface openings associated with karst geology have inhibited multiple infrastructure developments. Sinkholes are triggered by the alteration of the existing groundwater level which erodes weathered altered dolomite …

Time-Resolved Monitoring of Water Quality in Ozarks Springs During Storm Events
… to fresh water sources. Springs resulting from karst geology are often used as water sources. Springs demand special attention because they can serve as early barometers of water quality in any watershed due to the fact that they tend to concentrate pollutants from several sinkholes and …

Geographic Information System Methodologies to Evaluate Relationships Between Land use and Groundwater Quality in South Central Kentucky
… for a holistic approach to the study of karst groundwater contamination. While karst groundwaters supply water to a large percentage of the earth's population, its complex environments often have lacked the scientific examination and conservation measures typical of non-karst regions. In …

An Investigation of Groundwater Flow in the Vicinity of Patoka Dam, Indiana
… throughout the United States have been built on karst terrains, where soluble limestone bedrock has been dissolved to form features such as caves, sinkholes, and underground rivers. In such karst regions, subsurface hydrology can play an integral role in the condition, operation, and safety of …

An Analysis of Base-Level Conduit Sedimentation in South Central Kentucky
In karst basins, significant amounts of surface-derived sediment can enter into cave systems. The transport and deposition of these sediments in underground streams is a function of flow velocity, sediment supply and passage morphology. Changes in the surface environment can affect the water and …

Hydrochemistry in an Alpine Karst System, Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, California
… data from 2001 through 2003 from an alpine karst spring located at 2,500 m amsl in Sequoia National Park, California to reveal detailed chemical parameters of this karst system. The data show a system with a pronounced spring run-off, extended periods of base flow quiescence, storm responses …
