Lagoa Santa karstBrazil's iconic karst region /[electronic resource] :edited by Augusto S. Auler, Paulo Pessoa. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2020. - x, 330 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Cave and karst systems of the world,2364-4591. - Cave and karst systems of the world..

Introduction -- 200 years of karst research in the Lagoa Santa area -- Geology of the Lagoa Santa Karst -- The vegetation of the karst region -- Fauna of the Lagoa Santa Karst -- Hydrological behaviour of karst lakes -- Karst soils and their relationship to geomorphology -- Karst landforms -- Karst groundwater routes and dynamics -- Speleogenesis in the Lagoa Santa Karst.

This book discusses the Lagoa Santa Karst, which has been internationally known since the pioneering studies of the Danish naturalist Peter Lund in the early 1800s. It covers the speleogenesis, geology, vegetation, fauna, hydrogeology, geomorphology, and anthropogenic use of the Lagoa Santa Karst and is the first English-language book on this major karst area. The area, which has been at the heart of the debate on the origin and age of human colonization in the Americas, is characterized by a classical and scenic karst landscape with limestone cliffs, karst lakes and karst plains, in addition to numerous solution dolines. More than 1,000 caves have been documented in the area, many with significant archeological and paleontological value. Despite its great importance, the Lagoa Santa Karst faces severe environmental threats due to limestone mining and the expansion of the metropolis of Belo Horizonte and its surrounding towns. The growing recognition of the area's remarkable significance has led to increasing concern, and a number of protected areas have now been established, improving the conservation status of this landmark karst area.
