The importance of the karst aquifers is ever increasing for many reasons. The main are increasing water demands and deepening of karst water pollution problems. The following scientific and engineering disciplines should be included to solve karst aquifer problems: theoretical and engineering geology; sedimentology; morphology; speleology; hydrological mapping; theoretical, applied and engineering hydrogeology; geomorphology; geography; hydraulics; coastal karst problems; aquatic chemistry; theoretical and engineering hydrology, environmental exploitation and planning; geophysics engineering; ecology; forestry; agriculture; analyses of the influence exerted by man's activities in karst on the changes in the water regime and on the environment etc.
The session will focus on the following items and related topics
