Study of karst water by isotope hydrogeology methods; VEGA č. 1/0636/15; 2015-2018; co-workers; New findings on the conditions of formation, circulation and chemical and microbiological composition of cave water in the system of the Krásnohorská Cave on Silická Plateau were gained within the project. Hydrogeochemical research has shown spatial and temporal zonality of the chemical composition of the water in the Krásnohorská Cave. The results of the isotopic water composition contributed to the clarification of the origin of water and sulphates in the waters of the Krásnohorská Cave.
