Short summary
Alpine karst springs are important for providing year-around baseflow in mountain streams and sustaining fragile aquatic ecosystems. In this study the hydrogeology of a previously unexplored alpine karst system is characterized using diverse methods including the analysis of snowmelt-driven, diel fluctuations of spring discharge and electrical conductivity. The approach developed here will be transferrable to similar alpine karst systems in snow-dominated environments.
