Groundwater flooding in Irish karst: The hydrological characterisation of ephemeral lakes (turloughs)

O Naughton, PM Johnston, LW Gill - Journal of Hydrology, 2012 - Elsevier
Ephemeral karst lakes (turloughs) are wetlands at the interface between groundwater and
surface water, and are a characteristic feature of the Irish karst landscape. They are transient …

Erosion and weathering in carbonate regions reveal climatic and tectonic drivers of carbonate landscape evolution

R Ott, SF Gallen, D Helman - Earth Surface Dynamics, 2023 - esurf.copernicus.org
Carbonate rocks are highly reactive and can have higher ratios of chemical weathering to
total denudation relative to most other rock types. Their chemical reactivity affects the first …
