Today I was on #hedgewatch for #30DaysWild & had a look at the #rocks. This is a #limestone & shows signs of #karstification 🙀 The fractures have been widened by the water that contains carbonic acid made from the atmospheric CO2. So #rocks can transport #water for the hedges😻

Unique #karst #landscape at the #Gottesackerplateau. #Karstification (dissolution related to precipitation) created bizarre #exokarst features in the #Schrattenkalk limestone: #karren fields #Rillenkarren #Rinnenkarren #Firstkarren #Rundkarren #sinkholes #furrows #grooves #clefts

Some impressions from the beautiful #Burren #UNESCO #geopark in the west of #Ireland. The landscape is an amazing example for #karstification but it shows also some tilded and folded structures as it is visible at the #Mullaghmore hill. @SppDome #geology #geosciences #phdlife

📢Paper alert! Have you heard of #karstification by H2S #oxidation? E. Gaucher (@unibern) + collaborators describe the processes producing sulfuric acid in the #carbonates at the origin of two caves in the Pyrenees, using multiple S isotopes. 📎 https://t.co/z2Hiuk7ji5

Today on a hike my humans found #limestone with voides & #fractures widened by #karstification. One of my humans works on a project that investigates a karstified #geothermal reservoir-the humans is happy to see such #rocks in #nature #geology #renewable #geothermics

How much deep fresh #groundwater volumes does #Lebanon have? During onshore oil investigations some 70 years ago, the deep wells showed fresh groundwater kilometers down. #Karstification depth is quite unknown with surely enormous submarine groundwater discharges.

#Speleogenesis is the word used in speleology/geology to describe the mechanism of formation of all kinds of caves. In limestone, the origin of voids, caves, caverns and sinkholes/cenotes, involves a sequence of steps in a process called #karstification. https://t.co/DC7wV8EKrh
