Abstract

The research underway has the following objectives: 1) to evaluate the water distribution within these two park areas; 2) to determine the effects of human impact upon the natural hydrologic system; 3) to document any detrimental effects to the water quality; 40 to document any instances in which the cave environment is adversely affected by the quality of the water present; and 5) to provide options to present water use practices, if necessary.
