The Karst Waters Institute is a 501(c)3 nonprofit institution whose mission is to improve the fundamental understanding of karst water systems for professionals and the public.
The institute works to engage professionals in small conferences and workshops to advance karst science; increase recognition and publication of karst science; foster development of karst professionals; and to communicate and disseminate information to the public.
Nevada's Great Basin region contains the most active geothermal field in North America. The same geomorphology that created the basin and range landscape has caused Earth's crust to be very thin in this area. This close proximity to subsurface magma pockets allows super-heated water to form hot springs across the region.
