The Crimean Peninsula, with 84% of its territory composed of soluble rocks, is a region of wide occurrence and diverse manifestations of karst. Practically all groundwater of Crimea is related to karst aquifers, which have some hydrogeological features: the high velocities of groundwater flow and the high concentrations of dissolved substances in it; the spotty character of its discharge, the disagreement between subsurface and surface drainage areas, etc. The article shows the main problems of
