William B. and Elizabeth L. White
Hydrogeologists and speleologists all over the world recognise William B. White (Born 1934, USA) and Elizabeth L. White (Born 1936, USA) for their achievements in the fields of karst hydrogeology and cave research. It is also thanks to the Whites that many aspects of the specific hydrogeological characteristics of carbonate aquifers, such as turbulent flow in caves and conduits, are generally acknowledged today.
