23. Cave Biology Photo Index cave biology Photo Index. Caves are of great interest to biologists because they are generally isolated from the main nutrient source of the surface world http://www.bostongrotto.org/Grotto/bg-photo-bio.html

Cave Biology Photo Index Caves are of great interest to biologists because they are generally isolated from the main nutrient source of the surface world - the sunlight that provides the energy for the surface plants to grow. Since the animals on the surface ultimately depend on the plants for nutrition, neither plants nor animals are found in profusion in caves, like they are on the surface. Even the "cave mud" is (nearly) sterile, unlike surface soil which swarms with microorganisms. The result of this scarcity of resources is that the community of creatures that do inhabit the caves form relatively simple ecosystems, compared to the surface world. This makes these ecosystems interesting, because the important relationships, like "who eats what", and "where does the waste go", have much simpler answers than they normally do on the surface. Recent discoveries in the extremely low energy caves of the Southwestern USA have extended these ideas to the world of bacteria. A large number of new species, some with potential medical benefits, have been discovered living in extremely nutrient-poor cave environments. Most cavers don't notice the microorganisms, or even the small insects and springtails in the cave pools and the mud banks. They do notice, however, the larger visitors that use the cave as a temporary dwelling place or refuge from the surface world. Many a caver has unexpectedly encountered a snake hiding in an entrance passage, a pack rat who has chewed partway through his favorite rope, or a porcupine den with a pile of scat obscuring a passage that needs surveying.

NABN HOME Researcher/Field Cave Biology Related Master's Theses Annette Summers Engel (1999) [Geomicrobiology, U of Cinicinnati] Bi Sulfur-oxidizing bacteria were investigated in four different sulfidic karst systems in order to compare microbial distribution in subterranean habitats, and to assess the potential microbiological impact of sulfuric acid on rock dissolution. Four caves were examined, including: Movile Cave, Romania; the Frasassi caves, Italy; Cesspool Cave, Virginia; and Lower Kane Cave, Wyoming. Microorganisms in these active caves form a variety of aqueous and sub-aerial microbial mats and biofilms, including thick filamentous streamers and microbial draperies.

29. Cathedral Cave Biology Cathedral Cave Preserve Explore, study and protect this unique speleological wonder. http://cathedralcave.org/biology.htm

Home Research Archeo Biology There is a lot of exciting biological research going on at Cathedral Cave Preserve. An early discovery was the Townsend Long-eared bat maturnity colony roost.This colony was first documented in 1960, but since we have gated the cave in 2004 and limited the summer human access, it seems that the colony has increased in size. Another interesting animal using the caves is the Javalina. In 2005 we had nesting Javalina produce a litter of five pups in Indian cave. During wet periods we have also encounted up to five Tiger Salamanders living in Cathedral cave. But probably the most exciting find was the discovery of a new genus and species of millipede. The millipede was first noticed by BLM cave specialist Doug Powell. Jut Wynn then collected samples during his biological cave inventory and sent them out to Dr. Bill Shear for identification. This is a fine example of collaborative work among these scientists. Most of the Biological work going on in the cave has been done by Jut Wynn, a USGS Ecologist. Home Research Archeo Biology ...

30. Biology Biology of Crystal Cave. Life forms on the interior levels of the cave are rare although some forms of life are present other than the tourists and workers. http://www.uwec.edu/jolhm/Cave2005/Group3/cave biology.htm

Introduction History Cave Formation Cave Biology ... Crystal Cave Home Page Biology of Crystal Cave Life forms on the interior levels of the cave are rare although some forms of life are present other than the tourists and workers. Some of these forms naturally inhabit the cave and others do not belong in the cave at all. The plant life that is in the cave should not be there. There are forms of algae and possibly some forms of moss, but the only reason that they are there is due to human intervention in the cave. The use of lights and other materials brought in by man have caused the growth of this vegetation and they thrive so well in the cave because it is a constant, cool 48 degrees F all year round, no matter what the weather is above ground. What animals are common in the cave are bats. The bats are frequent in the cave and use it for the purpose of hibernation. The bats do not seem to be bothered by the frequency of humans in the cave unless provoked. Even then they just remove themselves to a more remote area of the cave. The bats are relatively small creatures, about 2 inches long. They can live to be 20 to 25 years old and one bat eats 3000 bugs every day during the summertime. Bats hanging from the ceiling The sub-levels of the cave contain different types of rock and soil structure. In the third level you can see some sedimentary layering with the presence of trace fossils. This is an indication that this layer of the cave was formed in a shallow tidal flat some 500 million years ago during the Cambrian era. Traces of worms, gastropods, crinoids, and trilobites have also been found.

Bats in Ease Gill Caves What's a Bat? Though there are lots of bat species worldwide there are only 14 in the UK and not all those occur in the north of England e.g. no Horseshoe bats in the north. Bats in Ease Gill - How to Report your sightings Bats have been seen in a wide variety of sites within the Ease Gill Cave System and its associated caves, including County Pot Lancaster Hole Link Pot and Pippikin and caves on Leck Fell Report from Bat Research Group at the University of Leeds We have good evidence now that at least five species of bat (Natterer's, Daubenton's, whiskered, Brandt's and brown long-eared) use the system in the autumn for mating (when they gather in substantial numbers after dark, making temporary visits from their summer roosts) and in the winter for hibernation (when most of them are well hidden). We have found roosting bats or evidence of bats in virtually every part of the system we have examined. Two photos of a hibernating Whiskered bats from Link Pot. They are both covered in condensation Left photo: Brown Long Eared batin Short Drop Cave on Leck Fell.

Click on the thumbnail for a full sized view. One features Greg Stock on the wall in Alcyone, named for the brightest star in the Pleiades Constellation. Note that the "white spots" on the photo are not a flaw but rather are sparkling crystal faces. Taken by Dave Bunnell. The ricocheting helictite photos was taken by Steve Bumgardner. The long segment of this filamental helictite is about seven inches in length. It has formed more than 80 feet above the floor of Dusted Canyon on a narrow ledge. The final picture is of Elizabeth Rousseau in Celaeno, another scenic room in the Pleiades. Taken by Dave Bunnell. 1998 Wrap-Up Administration and Management Crystal Cave Management Plan The plan is made clear through the use of the new Crystal Cave maps. A color-coded set of maps has been created to show which areas are under what restrictions. These will be available to Trustees and the SNHA staff.
