Abstract Earth's Critical Zone (CZ), the near‐surface layer where rock is weathered and
landscapes co‐evolve with life, is profoundly influenced by the type of underlying bedrock …

Carbonate minerals constitute Earth's largest C reservoir. This reservoir is considered
unimportant to the global C cycle over long periods of time (eg,> 10 6 yrs) because it …

Karst water resources are valuable freshwater sources for around 10% of the world's
population. Nonetheless, anthropogenic impacts and global changes have seriously …

Karst aquifers are globally prized freshwater sources, posing a significant preservation
challenge. These aquifers typically exhibit dual or even triple porosities, encompassing …

Long-distance seawater intrusion has been widely observed through the subsurface conduit
system in coastal karst aquifers as a source of groundwater contaminant. In this study …

Five periods of increased electrical conductivity have been found in the karst conduits
supplying one of the largest first magnitude springs in Florida with water. Numerous well …

Blue holes can provide valuable information regarding paleoclimate, climate change, karst
processes, marine ecology, and carbonate geochemistry. The Sansha Yongle Blue Hole …

New hydroacoustic data, high resolution multichannel seismic reflection data, CTD casts
and sampling document the dominance of bottom currents and the occurrence of carbonate …

Abstract The sediment in North Atlantic blue holes preserves paleoclimate records.
However, accurate paleoclimate reconstructions require an improved understanding of …

Most models of cave formation in limestone that remains near its depositional environment
and has not been deeply buried (ie eogenetic limestone) invoke dissolution from mixing of …
