  abstract = {{K}arst aquifers provide drinking water for 10% of the world's population, support agriculture, groundwater-dependent activities, and ecosystems. {T}hese aquifers are characterised by complex groundwater-flow systems, hence, they are extremely vulnerable and protecting them requires an in-depth understanding of the systems. {P}oor data accessibility has limited advances in karst research and realistic representation of karst processes in large-scale hydrological studies. {I}n this study, we present {W}orld {K}arst {S}pring hydrograph ({W}o{K}a{S}) database, a community-wide effort to improve data accessibility. {W}o{K}a{S} is the first global karst springs discharge database with over 400 spring observations collected from articles, hydrological databases and researchers. {T}he dataset's coverage compares to the global distribution of carbonate rocks with some bias towards the latitudes of more developed countries. {W}o{K}a{S} database will ensure easy access to a large-sample of good quality datasets suitable for a wide range of applications: comparative studies, trend analysis and model evaluation. {T}his database will largely contribute to research advancement in karst hydrology, supports karst groundwater management, and promotes international and interdisciplinary collaborations.},
