Karst is a landmark of Slovenia. Almost half of the country is karstic, with about 8,000 registered caves. More than half of the population is supplied by karst waters. The international term karst is derived from the name of Slovene region Kras, an area also regarded as the cradle of scientific discipline - karstology. | Karst is a landmark of Slovenia.

| + | Karstology has become a complex multidisciplinary science, covering a wide range of earth sciences related to karst. A long tradition of excellent research and a unique position at the heart of classical karst have established the [[Karst Research Institute]] as one of the most recognised karstological centres in the world. Several of the Institute's researchers are enrolled also as lecturers in the postgraduate Karstology programme offered by the [[University of Nova Gorica]]. | ||
