Guidelines for cave and karst protection
, 2012 Cave and karst landforms are distributed widely around the world. They have many values and are an integral component of the world\u27s biodiversity. Some are habitats for a wide range of endemic species of flora and fauna, while others house rare and ...

Geologic Management of Cave and Karst Resources on National Forest System Lands
, 2013 The United States Department of Agriculture Forest Service (Forest Service) manages caves, karst systems, and associated resources on over 780,000 square kilometres of public land.

Predicting contaminant and solute transport, forecasting floods and modelling speleogenetic stages are key questions of karst hydrogeology for which some theoretical foundations are still missing.

The term Karst relates to landscapes that have been shaped by the dissolution of carbonate rocks such as limestone and dolomite. Features that are commonly thought to characterize this distinct landscape include caves, springs, and sinkholes. However, such a description greatly oversimplifies this broad scientific discipline.

Carbonate caves and karst lands underlie most of southeastern Minnesota. The karst features are developed in relatively flat-lying lower Paleozoic limestones, dolostones, and sandstones. These rocks are major bedrock aquifers and contain about three-quarters of the groundwater resource in Minnesota.

The Illinois Basin occupies much of Illinois and contains Paleozoic sedimentary rocks consisting of Cambrian through Pennsylvanian strata. Most of the formations are dominated by limestone and dolomite. The carbonate rocks range from Ordovician through Mississippian in age, with lesser amounts occupying Cambrian and Pennsylvanian strata.

Iowa landforms have been shaped by a range of processes, including multiple glacial incursions. Many of these diverse landforms harbor a variety of karst features, including numerous examples of caves formed by both solutional and mechanical processes acting on an array of dolostones, limestones, gypsum, and sandstones.

The island of Barbados is composed of a series of stepped Pleistocene carbonate terraces that overlie Oligocene-Miocene chalk that is draped over deformed deep-sea clastics of Eocene age, the result of Quaternary sea-level fluctuations combined with tectonic uplift.

Caves and Karst of the Adirondacks
2015The Adirondack Mountains are the youngest mountain range in the northeastern US and are still doming, although they are made of the oldest rocks found in that region. The 1.1 Ga-old Grenville Marble hosts the dissolutional caves, which appear to be primarily post-glacial in origin, although the complexity of some caves (Crane Mountain), or large ...
