Karst and Pseudokarst Materials
Karst has two meanings: the first is synonymous with karst region, one made up of carbonate, compact and soluble rocks that display characteristic surface and underground forms; the other, by extension, refers to any effect of karstification on karstifiab

Preface
This book is an attempt, from an essentially hydrogeological point of view, to bring together both traditional and more recent concepts relating to karst landscapes. If we are not to overlook the fundamental scientific aspects, this is the only most practicable approach. Karst material has always aroused a great deal of interest due to its unique character and its huge economic importance, and also because the terrain that it creates often permits us to embark on underg
