β¦ Synopsis
Sixty-five papers from the September 2003 conference address the unique requirements of dealing with karst areas to predict and stabilize sinkhole prone sites, counteract seepage, limit groundwater intrusion into underground excavations, and prevent groundwater contamination from waste disposal. The researchers explore the geology and origin of sinkholes and karst, engineering transportation infrastructure, karst hydrology and dye tracing, computer applications, and karst terrain in central Kentucky and Alabama. Topics include subsidence hazards due to evaporite dissolution, biota as water quality indicators in springs, combined use of grouting and soil stabilization in sinkhole remediation, and electrical conductivity profiling of boreholes.
