* 2023 BCRA Online Seminar via Zoom - MONDAY 13 FEBRUARY

In 2023, BCRA celebrates its 50th anniversary. To mark this occasion we are hosting a series of online seminars that will promote the scientific importance of caves and karst. The second of these seminars will be in a week's time on Monday 13 February 2023 at 19:30 GMT.

Dan Matthews, a PhD student at the University of Leeds will speak in a talk entitled "It's karst Jim, but not as we know it: hydrologic tracing to public-water supply abstractions in the English Chalk".

For further information, including how to log on to the event, see https://bcra.org.uk/seminars

If, as part of this series of seminars, you would like to offer a talk on a science topic that you think would be of interest to a broad caver audience then please contact John Gunn with a title and a few words about your suggested content.
