Features of the Karst Water Regime in the Skelskaya Cave (Ai-Petri Massif, the Mountain Crimea) and Their Hydrogeological Interpretation
Journal: Water Resources
Year: 2024

The data of long-term monitoring (2012–2023) of hydrological (levels) and physicochemical (temperature, specific conductance) characteristics of karst water of the Skelskaya Cave are analyzed. Parallel observations in opposite parts of the cave (Western and Eastern lakes) revealed synchronous level variations but different dynamics of the temperature, specific conductance, and isotopic composition of water. The difference between the physicochemical parameters can be most clearly seen in flood e
