MURÁNSKA PLANINA PLATEAU (S AND SW PART) - A GROUNDWATER REGIME

The paper describes a groundwater regime in the S and SW part of the Muránska Planina Plateau, a typical karstic region with extensively developed karst phenomena. Muránska Planina Plateau is an over-thrusted large block of Mesozoic rocks mainly consisting of limestones and dolomites (Silica nappe),...
