![]() ![]() Cave and Karst Systems of the World enriches the basis for generalization and categorization of hypogene karst and thus improves our ability to adequately model hypogene karstification and predict related porosity and permeability. Hypogene karst has been identified and documented in many regions where it was previously overlooked or misinterpreted. the development of solutional porosity and permeability by upwelling flow, independent of recharge from the overlying or immediately adjacent surface. The last decade has witnessed the boost in recognition of the possibility, global occurrence, and practical importance of hypogene karstification (speleogenesis), i.e. They all focus on geological, hydrogeological, geodynamical and evolutionary contexts of hypogene speleogenesis. The cases include both well-known and newly recognized hypogene karst regions and caves of the world. Cave and Karst Systems of the World illustrates the diversity of hypogene speleogenetic processes and void-conduit patterns depending on variations of the geological environments by presenting regional and cave-specific case studies. ![]()
