Geological and hydrogeological research, tools for karst management in the north of the Caraş Gorges (Banat Mountains, Romania)

Abstract

The karst geosystems functioning frequently implies very quick mass and energy transfers, which make them highly sensitive to any natural or anthropogenic disturbance. Therefore, the groundwater resources, threatened by agricultural and industrial pollution, should be carefully exploited, taking into account the intrinsic vulnerability of the region
