Resumo
The great intrinsic diversity of karst and the variety of scientific fields in which it has been studied has generated a dramatic increase in our knowledge about it. This advance has also been accompanied by new questions and issues that open the door to new approaches. Our work intends to show a small sample of the wide diversity, often associated with a high degree of specialization, which allows completing the karst puzzle. In the first place, this paper provides a synthetic review of the concept of karst, the karstification process and the morphologies associated with it. Next, starting with a few questions, it shows some aspects and curiosities related to karst. The features of the underground microclimate, the non-traditional karst or deposits and mineralization associated with karst, are some of the topics included in this work, which can be interesting for the teachers dealing with the topic of karst in their classes
