The karst in the Altai Republic will be further identified and the selected regions will be examined. The findings will be used to fill in our knowledge about the characteristics of karst formation in different rocks and in various conditions around the world. This will facilitate filling in the regional knowledge gaps about karst, and expanding the international theorybased karstological expertise. Support will be provided to the development of local karstology also through the exchange of experience gained from the development of the UNESCO natural heritage.
