Marble Arch Caves: the science behind the tracing of water

http:// www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-43346538

 

  • A green, glowing river might look weirdly spectacular but for Paul Wilson it is part of daily life.

 

  • As a hydrogeologist with the Geological Survey of Northern Ireland, it is his responsibility to check where water comes from and goes to and what effect it is having on the land as it travels along.

 

  • That's because some of the ground in Northern Ireland is of a particular kind.

 

  • "We call this karst," Paul said.

 

  • "It's a unique form, where the rocks dissolve out because of the slight acidity of the rainwater and then it creates these cavities in the ground, which means streams can actually sink underground then reappear again in really dramatic fashion sometimes."

 

  • This is what has happened over the millennia in County Fermanagh at the site of the Marble Arch Caves.
