1. The Impacts of Quaternary Climate Change on Karst Geomorphology and Hydrology in the Appalachian Region Climate change occurs as a natural and continuous Earth process; however, it is now clear that human activities are perturbing global and local climates. Perturbations in climate can cause substantial modifications to landscapes and water resources, with serious consequences for ecosystems as well as for human societies and economies. Detailed, geology-based reconstructions of changes in climate, hydrology, and landscape geomorphology provide a framework for understanding patterns of natural variability and also provide a baseline for understanding the consequences of current and future climate changes. Such geologic data are an important guide for managing and adapting to future change. Under this Research Opportunity, applicants are invited to focus on obtaining geologic records of climate change that have impacted karst landscape evolution in the Appalachian region. Applicants should choose a particular Appalachian karst system that is accessible for research projects and in which it is possible to obtain paleoclimatic and (or) paleohydrologic data. Applicant proposals should describe the karst study area and any property access issues, discuss previous work on which this research might build, and propose methods of obtaining paleoclimatic and paleohydrologic data. If appropriate, possibilities for interdisciplinary collaboration with hydrologists, geomorphologists, and other scientists should be discussed.

Ford School of Geography and Geology, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario L8S 4K1, Canada Abstract There have been many important advances in the study of cave deposits. Clastic sediments may be dated approximately by paleomagnetics, more precisely by cosmogenic Be/ Al decay of quartz sands or pebbles, and by Ar/ Ar where clays have been converted to alunite by H S reactions. Currently, there is a bandwagon in paleoenvironmental studies of speleothems. They can be precisely dated back to 500,000 yr B.P. by U-series methods, their C and O isotope ratios track local and regional environmental changes over the course of the glacial cycles, and many display annual or other significant periodic banding. karren sinkholes solutional caves speleothems Footnotes Accepted 22 September 2005.

KWI Conduit Volume VII, Number 1-2 Spring/Fall 1999 Karst Notes Dr. Derek Ford Honored at the First Annual Karst Awards Dinner Sponsored by KWI The Karst Waters Institute held the First Annual Karst Awards Dinner on Saturday, March 13, 1999. The ceremony honored the career and achievements of Dr. Derek Ford. Throughout his career, Dr. Ford has expanded the frontiers of karst science and published a rich body of research furthering the understanding of speleogenesis, karst geomorphology, geochronology, paleokarst, paleoclimate, and other karst processes and phenomena. Dr. Ford recently retired from McMaster University and received the rank of Professor Emeritus. His tenure at McMaster University included the supervision of the graduate programs of numerous students who have gone on to become prominent karst scientists. At the ceremony, held at the Claymont near Charles Town, West Virginia, Dr. Ford delivered the banquet speech and was formally presented with the award.
