From analysis of the hydrodynamic and hydrochemical responses of karst springs, it is
possible to know the behaviour of the aquifers they drain. This manuscript aims to contribute …

Summary The Lurbach karst system (Styria, Austria) is drained by two major springs and
replenished by both autogenic recharge from the karst massif itself and a sinking stream that …

Groundwater vulnerability map** is one of the tools most often applied to analyse the
sensitivity of karst aquifers to pollution. These maps aim to support stakeholders in decision …

Using the reservoir model theory, this study developed an equation for the relationship
between the transfer and recession coefficients under a matrix-restrained flow regime …

In carbonate massifs, flow patterns are conditioned by karstification processes which
develop a conduit network and preserve low permeability microfractured blocks. The Sierra …

The purpose of this research was to identify groundwater recharge mechanisms and
measure flow velocities through the epikarst and the vadose zone in a typical site of …

In contaminant hydrogeology, investigations at fractured rock sites are typically undertaken
to improve understanding of the fracture networks and associated groundwater flow that …

To investigate the feasibility of using temperature for tracking rainfall-runoff processes in
karst catchments, this study developed a tracer-aided conceptual model using temperature …

During the last 40 years, extensive research has characterized the hydrogeology of many
karst aquifers, as they are important water resources. Despite that, a systematic investigation …

On the edge of sedimentary basins, burial of geological layers can involve the formation of
confined karst aquifers. In some cases, relationships between confined and unconfined karst …
