Morphogenetical aspects of collapse dolines and open pits in the karst of the Venetian Fore-Alps
Sauro, Ugo
Abstract:
The author found 6 reasons related to formation of collapse dolines and openings of karst shafts in Venetian Fore-Alps: a) collapse of the roof, decapping of hypogean cavity, speleogenesis and dynamics of the epikarst, swallowing of filling materials inside hypogean voids, swallowing cover of loose materials, opening by seismic shocks. Types of karst structures are the superficial expression of the evolution of drainage structures in the epikarst.
