Title: Water resources engineering in karst
Description: "Water Resources Engineering in Karst is an engineering guide for the design and construction of water infrastructure projects within karst formations and protection systems for karstified reservoirs, aquifers, steams, and springs. It includes investigative techniques, practical design solutions, case studies with failure analysis, criteria proposals for karst groundwater protection zoning, and a comprehensive review of the unique hydrogeological dynamics of karst formations. Most importantly, it provides engineering approaches for preventing and mitigating environmental problems common in karst regions." "The author presents a wealth of data collected during his role as an investigating and designing hydrogeologist on karst projects. He provides engineers, hydrologists, and geologists with a detailed understanding of characteristics and vulnerabilities of these formations, and the challenges involved in engineering and construction in karst regions around the world."--BOOK JACKET.
