Abstract. In this paper, for the first time we would like to mention and analyze the main factors which effect the karst activity on limestone of the Cò Bai Formation (D_2-3 cb), and then quantitatively estimate the alteration in karstification intensity of this limestone under the influence of tropical monsoon climate of the Cam Lộ area, Quảng Trị Province.
