Determination of Karst Solubility Levels of Spring Water in Ajloun Area

Abstract

The study examins the degree of karst dissolution of spring water in Ajloun Area in order to show the role of the Physical characteristics of the region in the origin and development of karst landform, and the classification of the degree of karst dissolution, to achieve the objectives of the study, the study was based on comprehensive scientific research methods. The study found the role of the Physical characteristics of the quality of weak limestone rocks characterized by cracks and rocks, in addition, the region enjoys high rainfall rates that make it a suitable environment for the emergence of karst landform, It also found different karst bands with a nothing karst band of 2.8% and a high karst band of 6.9% of the area, depending on the variation of the net precipitation factor and the carbonate content, in addition to the average melting point of the karst reaching 6.68 mm / 1000 years.
