Description

This book reviews the hydrogeology of karst systems, starting with the classifications from the applied point of view, and then the hydraulic parameters (porosity, permeability, and transmissivity).�It also addresses the karstification process, its resulting forms, and their hydrogeological significance. Besides, the author� describes possible models of karstic aquifers and their characterization.�The book�also explains the classical methods for analyzing� hydrograms of karst springs and deepens the analysis of time series, as a preliminary phase to the mathematical simulation of karst aquifers. Finally,�it�introduces the hydrogeochemical characterization of karst, of the processes involved as well as the possible pollution and protection of karst aquifers. This book�is intended to be of interest for professionals in hydrogeology as well as graduate and undergraduate students.Typham this is the title: Principles of Karst Hydrogeology Conceptual Models, Time Series Analysis, Hydrogeochemistry and Groundwater Exploitation
