PURPOSE |
|
|
The aim of this symposium is to bring together the international scientists
studying on karst. Karst is a rapidly changing research and application
field due to both the improvements in instrumental technology and the increased
number of institutions that are engaged in methodological development and
application. Thus, there are frequent improvements in the reliability and
applicability of existing techniques and novel methods continue to be introduced.
The symposium
intends to digest the historical development and encapsulate the current
state-of-art and the new trends of karst studies. The outcome of the symposium
will be a basis for the studies of coming century in all aspects of karst. |
