T100. Karst Hydrology and Hydrogeology
Aspects of fluid-rock interactions within karst landscapes, including geologic, hydrogeologic, and hydrologic investigations. Topics: dye tracing and aquifer processes to surface-subsurface hydrologic interactions and quantitative models
T99. Karst Hazards and Monitoring
Hazards (e.g., sinkholes, pollution, Rn, development) and monitoring approaches in karst landscapes, including technical applications (e.g., LiDAR, 3D scanning, geodatabases) and management implications (education, policy, regulation).
