WATER
INSTITUTE (KWI)
Based in
USA, the KWI
was founded

The goals
of KWI
are : (1) interdisciplinary
karst research; (2) advance
scientific knowledge
by fostering
state-of-art karst
research; (3) solution of
environment and land use
problems in
karst regions; (4)
education.
KWI published
Newsletter in
1992. In 1993, it
changed the
publication's name

KARST
HYDROLOGY LIST
SERVER
Doug
Boyer,hydrologist with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural
Research Service, has set up a new list server for the discussion
of karst hydrology and water
quality issues.
The list is
maintained on a U.S.
government server and is currently
unmoderated in
order to allow
for quick free
flow of information.
Subscriptions
can be made by
mailing to:
Listcaster@afsrc.ars.usda.gov
Including the
following message:

Questions and
comments about
the list
should be
sent to:
