Karst terrains have undergone significant modifications and adaptations due to various human activities, driven by the increasing demand for flood control, irrigation, food production, hydropower generation, and other resources. Successful reclamation projects necessitate the construction of dams and reservoirs, presenting unique challenges for dam foundation and the creation of safe reservoir space. These terrains pose the most complex working conditions for dam construction, requiring innovative engineering solutions. This book presents a comprehensive collection of data on dam projects in karst, encompassing both successful and unsuccessful endeavors. Recognizing the potential for reservoir failure despite extensive investigations and remediation treatments, the book also includes descriptions of such failures.
