Tiankengs: Special Issue
The Speleogenesis Team is pleased to announce the release of the next issue of the "Speleogenesis and Evolution of Karst Aquifers" Journal – Volume 4, Issue 1. This is a special issue, a joint publication with Cave & Karst Science (vol.32, 2-3) and Carsologica Sinica (vol.25),
dedicated to tiankengs (giant dolines) in South China and elsewhere. This is a prime outcome from the 2005 Tiankeng International Investigation Project, organised by Prof. Zhu Xuewen and his team.
The volume contains twelve articles (see the content at the bottom) providing a comprehensive characterisation and discussion of the tiankeng phenomena and related aspects. The ultimate link between the formation of tiankengs and speleogenesis is well illustrated by the papers, as well as an important role of speleogenesis in karst geomorphology.
Previous issues of Speleogenesis are available via the "Jump to:" line on the main page. All previously published papers are available in the Archive section.
NEXT ISSUE IN PREPARATION – Volume 4, Issue 2, 2006
The Speleogenesis team is working on the next issue.
As always, the Journal relies on good papers. We encourage you to submit your contributions to be considered for publication.
EXPLORATION SPOTLIGHT
A new addition here is a brief info on the results of the most recent expedition of the "Call of the Abyss" project to Krubera Cave, Arabika, Western Caucasus (August-September 2006), with a new depth figure for the cave to be -2,158m. Snapshots from the updated 3D model of the cave are posted there.
