Karst and Caves of Great Britain
The geology and geophysics of the United Arab Emirates : Volume 2, Geology
Michael Styles,Richard Ellison,Sarah Arkley,Quentin Crowley,Andrew R. Farrant,Kathryn Goodenough,John A. McKervey,Tim Pharaoh,Emrys Phillips,David I. Schofield,Robert J. Thomas +10 more
TL;DR: Goodenough et al. as discussed by the authors presented the results of a multidisciplinary study by the British Geological Survey (BGS) to produce 1:50 000 scale geological maps of the bedrock and superficial geology of the northern part of the UAE.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of sediment in speleogenesis; sedimentation and paragenesis
Andrew R. Farrant,Peter L. Smart +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors give an overview of the mechanisms of cave sedimentation and describe how the process of alluviation and paragenesis affect speleogenesis, using meso-and micro-scale dissolutional features.
Journal ArticleDOI
Karstic behaviour of groundwater in the English Chalk
Louise Maurice,Tim Atkinson,John A. Barker,John P. Bloomfield,Andrew R. Farrant,A.T. Williams +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a field survey of surface karst features in the catchments of the Pang and Lambourn rivers in southern England demonstrates the importance of overlying and adjacent Palaeogene strata in the development of karast features, and suggests that groundwater flow may be through a complex combination of small conduits, typically 10-1000 mm in diameter, and more laterally extensive fissures with apertures of 1-50 mm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Karst geohazards in the UK: the use of digital data for hazard management
TL;DR: The National Karst Database (NKD) as discussed by the authors was created to identify areas that may potentially contain karst geohazards, such as stream sinks, springs, sinkholes and caves.
