During a long period, tracer tests aimed exclusively to define water catchment areas in karst basins. Recent developments in the methodology and in the technique itself have largely increased the potentialities of understanding karst flow mechanisms : use of boreholes as injection or measuring points, progress in tracer selection and detection, introduction of continuous monitoring... This paper emphasizes the parallelism between the evolution of the tracing technique and the knowledge of karst. [less ▲]
