1 KARST INFORMATION PORTAL The growing footprint of humans worldwide has serious adverse effects on karst, an understudied natural environment that is crucial to the health and well-being of one out of every four people on Earth. PICTURED ABOVE: Moria Arch, New Zealand (Photo by George Veni)
2 We simply do not know the full potential of karst for benefit or hazard to humanity and the global ecosystem. Globally, more than a billion people depend on karst terrains for their water supplies. These environments host great biodiversity that is poorly understood and contains unique, rare, and endangered species. The spectacular geology of karst, as well as significant archaeological and paleontological resources, contributes to the overall scientific, aesthetic, cultural, and economic value of karst landscapes.
3 PICTURED ABOVE: Scarisoara Cave, Apuseni Mountains, Romania (Photo by Claudiu Szabo & Gigi Fratila) The Problem The karst research community and its knowledge base are fragmented, globally distributed, and highly interdisciplinary. As karst issues move to the forefront of attempts to develop solutions to significant environmental degradation, information integration and linkages promoting collaboration and connectivity among researchers are essential. The Solution: KIP's Mission The Karst Information Portal (KIP) is a growing international community seeking to create an open system for karst-related information. The goal is a web-based worldwide information network, easily accessible to scientists, researchers, and other stakeholders as a means to inform research, to enhance collaboration, and to address policy decisions in karst environments.

Contribute, Connect, and Collaborate The success of the Karst Information Portal depends in large part on the participation of active members of the karst community, from professional scientists to recreational cavers. KIP s growth and relevance is driven by contributions of data and information from the karst community as well as dialog on pressing issues underlying the preservation and understanding of cave and karst environments.
