Enfin, et cela n’ existe absolument pas à l'air libre, la rivière souterraine peut présenter des «contre-pentes», c'est-à-dire qu'après être descendue, l'eau peut remonter. Bien entendu, dans ce cas là, il est évident que la galerie est entièrement noyée et fonctionne en conduite forcée. Elle dessine une sorte de tube en U dans lequel il faut que la pression d’eau dans la branche amont soit supérieure à celle de la branche aval pour que la circulation se réalise. Les spéléologues ont pris la fâcheuse habitude de désigner sous le nom de «siphon» un tel dispositif qui est en réalité un siphon inversé et non un vrai siphon comme celui des fontaines intermittentes. 4, record 5, French, - contre%2Dpente
