Morphology, hydrology and hydrochemistry of karst in permafrost terrain near Great Bear Lake, Northwest Territories / R.O. van Everdingen: En36-502/114E-PDF
"Seasonal flooding of karst depressions may cause problems for future engineering developments in the region; the tendency of the karst to collapse presents a special geotechnical hazard in addition to the problems related to the widespread occurrence of ice-rich permafrost. The karst-water system is extremely vulnerable to contamination from the surface because of the close spacing of high-rate recharge points and the unfiltered nature of the recharge"--Abstract.
