We present a discussion of the state-of-the art on modelling geometrical characteristics,
hydrogeological behavior and geochemical evolution of karst aquifers of meteoric origin …

Groundwater in karst aquifers is frequently tapped for drinking purposes, due to frequent
huge volumes of resources. Unfortunately, vulnerability of these aquifers can be high, due to …

Quantifying and understanding recharge behavior of aquifers in complex hydrogeological
systems is challenging, which limits our ability to manage water resources in karstic areas. In …

Epikarst, as a distinct layer of karst critical zone, plays a crucial role in water storage-transfer
functions and biogeochemical processes. The epikarst thickness, which shows high spatial …

Springs play a key role in the hydrology of mountain catchments and their water supply has
a considerable impact on regional livelihood, biodiversity, tourism, and power generation …

Hydrological models represent valuable tools to investigate the impacts of land use changes
on water resources. Most commonly, distributed, physically-based models are applied for …

The main public water supply in the São Miguel watershed (MG, Brazil) comes from a well-
developed karst region, where information about hydraulic communications between caves …

This work adopts a multicriteria approach, combining diverse karst hydrogeology
techniques, to investigate the functioning of evaporite-karst systems, which are normally less …

Karst groundwater is important for global sustainable water supply and ecological
development. However, the lack of understanding of karst systems' hydrogeological …

Karst groundwater plays an irreplaceable role in the formation and development of urban
areas, and land-use and land-cover change (LUCC) and the input of pollutants during the …
