Resumo

In its third edition, the "William Morris Davis - Journal of Geomorphology" presents its
second interview with geographers, to head the "Interviews" section, which opens each published
issue. This time, it is the first international interview, carried out with Professor Philip van Beynen,
from the University of South Florida, in the United States. Professor Philip van Beynen was
interviewed on the topic "Karst in Urban Areas", and brings important data on the subject, with
beautiful illustrations and with examples from all over the world. The interview took place on
September 17, 2020, with the participation of Vanda de Claudino-Sales (Professor of the Academic
Master in Geography at the State University of Vale do Acarau-UVA) and Saulo Roberto Oliveira
Vital (Professor of the Department of Geography and the Post-Graduate Program in Geography at
the Federal University of Paraiba - UFPB), and was transcribed by Diego Nunes Valadares, master's
student on Geography at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte.
Professor van Beynen was born in New Zealand, where he received his degree in Geography
at the University of Auckland. He earned a master's degree from the same university, and a
doctorate and post-doctorate from McMaster University, Canada. He has been a professor at the
School of Geoscience at the University of South Florida since 2009, where he has been developing
research related to different components of karst environments. The interview shows his great
expertise on the subject, and is very much worth to be read and seen even for those who are not
specialists in karst.
