South China Karst II
Slovene and Chinese karstologists join studies from the chosen parts of diverse Yunnan karst, from topical cone karst on south and stone forest on center to mountain karst and high plateau karst of Tibet in the north. Presented are results of research in the karst on stone forests and other types of karst surfaces, soil erosion, the formation of tufa, vegetation, the development, age and sediment of karst caves, karst waters, epikarst fauna and the protection of the natural heritage.
South China Karst 1
Knjiga povzema rezultate znanstvenega sodelovanja med Inštitutom za raziskovanje krasa ZRC SAZU, Yunnanskim geografskim inštitutom in Geološkim inštitutom Kitajske akademije znanosti. Raziskave so potekale na območju v bližini Liupanshuija v zahodnem delu province Guizhou, na kraških planotah med Guizhouom in Yunnanom ter v Lunanskem kamnitem gozdu in kopastem krasu Xichoua v Yunnanu. Predstavljene so splošne značilnosti območja, litološka in strukturna zgradba ter geomorfološke, speleološke in hidrogeološke značilnosti, pa tudi različni tipi izrabe tal in njihovi vplivi na okolje.
Cave Exploration in Slovenia
This book focuses on the opening and exploration of more than 350 previously undiscovered caves of the Slovenian Karst, discovered during motorway construction work. The summarizes the planning of traffic roads and presents the new findings obtained during construction, as well as studies on newly-discovered karst phenomena and karst waters and their protection. Earthmoving work during construction has revealed a cross-section of the surface of the Classical Karst, covered karst with famous underground stone forests and unique karst in breccia. Research conducted in these caves has yielded a number of new findings on how the karst surface and underground were formed, on the flow of water through karst aquifers, and on the evolution of karst on various types of rock and under various conditions. The work was written by researchers from the ZRC SAZU Karst Research Institute and the Institute of Geology AS CR. The reader will benefit from the authors’ collaboration with planners and builders, which offers valuable insights for the planning and execution of their own activities in karst regions.
Karstology in the Classical Karst
This book presents the latest advances in karstology by researchers at the ZRC SAZU Karst Research Institute, Slovenia – home of Classical Karst. It features interdisciplinary investigations carried out on the karst surface, subsurface, caves, and associated waters. It covers various topics, such as analysis of karst processes, including the mineralogical and lithological characteristics of sediments and carbonate rocks; structural geological mapping; detecting the old traces of paleokarst; the formation of karst surfaces in a variety of types of rock and conditions; and the evolution of karst, which can aid in dating sediments, and in tracing aquifers using artificial and natural tracers. In addition, the book provides detailed information on the use and development of various research methods, ranging from comprehensive field research, long-term measurements, and laboratory analyses to computer and laboratory modeling. Integrating karst geology, geomorphology, hydrology, ecology, speleobiology, and microbiology research, these methods provide readers with a far deeper understanding of karst terrains.
Krasoslovje v razvojnih izzivih na krasu / Karstology and development challenges on karst
A good knowledge of the natural and cultural heritage of karst is a precondition for the rational planning of life on it. We try to organize the knowledge to make it as useful as possible for planners. We are involved in individual projects related to the regional planning, water supply systems, the construction of transportation infrastructure, the closure of landfills in karst areas, the collection of data on karst caves and their protection, karst ecology and determining the extent of human influence on the karst underground. A new book series Karstology and development challenges on karst was designed to present the results of completed and new projects to a broader public.The first book...
Cave Rocky Relief and its Speleogenetical Significance
Dejavniki, ki oblikujejo kraško podzemlje, zapuščajo sledi tudi na skalnem obodu kraških votlin. Nastajajo skalne oblike, ki jih povezujemo v skalni relief. Ta je pogosto pomembna sled oblikovanja in razvoja kraških votlin. V knjigi (Jamski skalni relief in njegov speleogenetski pomen) so strnjena proučevanja o nastanku in razvoju najbolj značilnih jamskih skalnih oblik. Predstavljen je skalni relief kot sled načina oblikovanja rovov v različnih hidroloških pogojih ter njegov speleogenetski pomen v razvojno raznovrstnih jamah. Delo tudi na novo ovrednoti speleogenetski pomen skalnega reliefa v izbranih predelih slovenskega krasa. Celotno besedilo je objavljeno v angleškem jeziku, na koncu knjige je dodan obsežen slovenski povzetek.
The Beka-Ocizla Cave System
A proposed railway on the 5th European Railway Corridor (Venice-Kiev) between the northern Adriatic ports of Koper (Slovenia) and Trieste (Italy) and the interior of Slovenia required extensive karstological studies and planning. This book contains the knowledge gained from these studies as well as further information on the regional karst surface and underground, the karst hydrogeology and the specific caves of the Beka-Ocizla cave system.

Karst Rock Features. Karren sculpturing
Rock features are important traces of the formation and development of karst surface. On various karren their record is especially rich, revealing to us the many factors that in diverse conditions formed the karst surface on various carbonate and other rock.We have tried to present the most characteristic rock features and through them the most important factors and processes in the formation of the karst surface, the methods of studying them, and the most outstanding examples.Forty-nine contributing authors offer a wide spectrum of content and examples of rock forms from many karst regions around the world.The first part of the book offers an orderly-organized survey and description of the most characteristic rock forms and presents the physical and chemical corrosion of rock, biocorrosion, the modeling of rock forms, their detailed morphometrics, and numerous descriptions of individual rock forms. The second part is devoted to various examples of rock forms found around the world from Slovenia through North and South America to Australia and Asia.
