This book is part of a series on coastal research written.
Karst landforms are evident in every hemisphere and specifically where there are carbonate rock formations at or near the ground surface. The geologist will recommend a very detailed geotechnical investigation report to determine where the epikarst begins and downward to the top of unweathered rock or the karst surface.

Karst is a type of topography that features landforms produced by the dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone, gypsum, and dolomite. Karst landscapes have extensive underground cave systems, subterranean rivers, sinkholes, etc. Karst landforms vary in size and type.
They maybe small-scale features like runnels, solution flutes, etc or large Author: Oishimaya Sen Nag. Karst comprises some of the most unique landscapes in the world, but it is also characterised by distinctive landforms.
These characteristic landforms can be found both on the surface and below ground. Surface landforms commonly include enclosed depressions, sinkholes, sinking streams and springs. The most common types of karst landforms are.

Unique landforms and patterns of drainage called karst or karst topography primarily form in temperate to tropical regions, though they are found in arid and polar regions too.
The common feature shared by all karst landscapes is that they are underlain by chemical sedimentary rocks particularly susceptible to dissolution, carbonates and/or evaporites. Polje (karst polje, karst field), a large flat specifically karstic plain.
The name "polje" derives from South Slavic languages. Doline, also sink or sinkhole, is a closed depression draining underground in karst areas. The name "doline" comes from dolina, meaning "valley", and derives from South Slavic languages.

The word karst is a Germanized form of the name of a carbonate plateau that is situated above the Adriatic Sea immediately to the east of Trieste, Italy, and covers about km 2 (Fig. 2).The regional name for this area is Kras from the pre-Indo-European root Ka(r) meaning stone or rock (Gams, ).Variations on the name include Carusadus, Karusad, Grast, Krs, and Carso.
"The book's greatest value to those already concerned with karst geomorphology lies in the strongly individual voice in which it is written, a voice which represents a distinctively American school of though which as largely grown up around White and other leading members of the Cave Research Foundation in the eastern U.S.A.
