Abstract

In this chapter the research history of glaciokarsts is described from 1880 in the following topics: morphological descriptions (landforms on glaciokarst terrains, cave explorations on glaciokarsts), hydrologic and speleological analysis of subglacial and periglacial karst aquifers, new methodologies in glaciokarst research (dating methods, formal stratigraphy, GIS, computer simulations), age of synthesis, anthropogenic effects and climate change on glaciokarsts.
