Abstract
Reference has been made several times in the discussions of the karst geomorphology to the springs and underground waters of the karst areas. This chapter gives a summary review of the karst hydrogeology and the characteristics of the karst waters, particularly in relation to the geomorphology. Both this and the concluding chapter review the contributions of Chinese karst to world karst geomorphology, and its position in general world karst studies.
