"An international group of scientists came together to learn about and discuss time processes in karst from six perspectives:

–The age of karst landscapes, including caves and other karst landforms

–The biogeographic history of cave animals, especially as it relates to the present and past distributions of cave animals

–Methods of determining the age of caves, especially geophysical ones

–Paleokarst and what it can tell us about age

–The sediment record

–The age of lineages of cave animals, especially using molecular clock techniques"
