Cave and karst landforms are distributed widely around the world. They have many values and are an integral component of the world's biodiversity. Some are habitats for a wide range of endemic species of flora and fauna, while others house rare and endangered species. Still others are the sources of rare minerals and some are important for resources such as groundwater, while some are venerated as sites of religious, spiritual and cultural importance. Many such landforms encompass one or many of these values. As special places, cave and karst landforms require special management. This small booklet has been prepared as a brief guide for planners, managers and users of cave and karst estates and provides general information and practical guidelines for the management of cave and karst ecosystems.

"The purpose of this management plan is to provide guidelines and direction for the protection and management of the park's cave and karst resources. The plan contains specific rules, regulations, and protocols designed to protect resources while still providing as much as possible for visitor enjoyment. The management plan outlines procedures for the systematic inventory, mapping, and assessment of cave resources, classification, and permit issuance. This plan recognizes visitor use demands and strives to adress all levels of recreational use, research, education, and public safety"--Page 1.

"Nearly 25% of the world's population lives in karst areas -- landscapes that are characterized by sinkholes, caves, and underground drainage. Living with Karst, the 4th booklet in the AGI Environmental Awareness Series, vividly illustrates what karst is and why these resource-rich areas are important. The booklet also discusses karst-related environmental and engineering concerns, guidelines for living with karst, and sources of additional information."--Provided by publisher.
