Purpose: Karst used for the Safe Water Conservation Collaborative (SWCC) Prioritization Model (v1.1)
Measurement: Acres of karst
Justification: Karst lands are valuable to protect because of the impact development/land use changes on karst have on water quality. Karst lands are more prone to infiltration of pollutants into groundwater and they host fragile ecosystems that serve as critical habitat for unique wildlife. (The scientific & socio-economic importance of karst and caves and their vulnerability). |
