  • More about Groundwater Distribution in the Recharge Area of Ljubljanica Springs


This book offers a novel approach to studying groundwater dynamics in karst aquifers by monitoring parameters in epiphreatic caves. It presents conceptual models of the conduit system and emphasizes the importance of caves as monitoring sites. The methodology can be applied to other karst systems, making it practical.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 170 pages

Publisher: Springer Nature Switzerland AG


This captivating book delves into a groundbreaking approach to studying the intricate dynamics of karst aquifers and characterizing their unique features. The foundation of this insightful content lies in extensive long-term monitoring of groundwater parameters within the epiphreatic caves of a selected karst aquifer, situated within the classical recharge area of the Ljubljanica River in Slovenia. Extensive data collection and meticulous analysis were conducted to unravel the complex interplay between recharge and outflow from the Planinsko Polje, a key control mechanism governing the system. By leveraging the known and inferred geometry of the karst conduit system, the author presents numerically tested conceptual models that provide novel insights into the structure and functioning of this remarkable natural system.

In the concluding chapter, the author emphasizes the crucial role of caves as monitoring sites for groundwater, introducing innovative tools for interpreting cave water level hydrographs. While this book specifically focuses on a particular site, the methodology developed herein has broad applicability to numerous other karst systems, rendering it a valuable resource with significant practical implications.

Overall, this captivating book offers a profound exploration into the world of karst aquifers, shedding light on their complex dynamics, and providing valuable insights into their monitoring and management. It is a must-read for researchers, professionals, and enthusiasts alike who seek to deepen their understanding of this fascinating geological phenomenon.
