Abstract
Karst aquifers represent important but very vulnerable sources for water supply to a significant<br>part of the earth’s population. For sustainable use of these resources, development of integrated<br>management tools based on numerical groundwater models is required. In principle karst aquifers are<br>characterized by the presence of two distinct flow domains: the limestone matrix and the karst conduits.
