New publication in Journal of Hydrology

We are pleased to announce that our article, Integrated multi-scale ecohydrogeological monitoring of spatio-temporal dynamics in karst critical zones, has been published in the Journal of Hydrology.

In this article, we present a new approach to monitoring ecohydrogeological processes in karst critical zones, which combines surface and underground locations, adapted sampling methods, and monitoring technologies. A study in a forested karst aquifer in Slovenia has demonstrated the advantages of carefully selected locations and innovative techniques for monitoring precipitation, soil solutions, flowing and percolating water in caves. The research highlights challenges such as ensuring the spatial and temporal representativeness of measurements, protecting instruments, and adapting measurements in dynamic environments. The results show how such an approach can improve understanding of karst processes, promote interdisciplinary collaboration, and contribute to effective water resource management.
