Written for graduate students and academic researchers, this book provides a critical examination of current knowledge and ideas on cave biology, with emphasis on evolution, ecology, and conservation. Aldemaro Romero provides a historical analysis of ideas that have influenced biospeleology, discusses evolutionary phenomena in caves, from cave colonization to phenotypic and genotypic changes, and integrates concepts and knowledge from diverse biological viewpoints. He challenges the conventional wisdom regarding the biology of caves, and highlights urgent questions that should be addressed in order to get a better and more complete understanding of caves as ecosystems.

2. Cave Biology, Sequoia And Kings Canyon National Parks
   Welcome to the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks natural resources website.  
   http://www.nps.gov/archive/seki/snrm/wildlife/cave_biology.htm
   
   Extractions: Wildlife Links and Lists People usually visit caves for the adventure of a new subterranean world or to see beautiful cave formations. But, below the feet and over the heads of visitors to caves are surprising and varied animals that make caves their home. Biologists divide cave-dwelling animals into three groups: Troglobites, which are restricted to caves; Troglophiles, who live in caves and on the surface; and Trogloxenes, who regularly visit caves but can not complete their life cycles in subterranean environments. Troglobites are often very specialized animals adapted to live in just one cave or a group of caves. Their adaptations may include no eyes or pigment, elongated appendages and enhanced tactile senses. These animals are very sensitive to change and disturbance. Troglobites or their food supply, can be trampled by caver visitors. Water pollution and surface developments may also poison cave environments. Bats are Trogloxenes, but they too are very sensitive to disturbance. They evolved to live in caves in complete darkness and silence. Unwitting cave visitors bring lights and make noises terrifying colonies of bats. Today a significant percentage of animals on the Endangered Species list is cave dwelling bats and invertebrates.

   Extractions: Cave Biology: What lives below the ground? The World Beneath By Marek Smith Allegheny Highlands Environmental Council The Madison Cave isopod is only known from a dozen caves in the Shenandoah Valley. (Photo courtesy Susan Middleton and David Liittschwager) Most of us give little thought to what lives below the ground we walk on each day. We may occasionally notice an earthworm or a hole dug by a groundhog, but rarely do we get a glimpse of what really exists in the subterranean world. Karst landscapes, with their diversity of underground features, offer a unique window into that world. And caves, the most recognizable and visited karst feature, offer opportunities to explore it. The dark, damp, and cool conditions found in caves may seem inhospitable to us, but the underground world can be teaming with life. In fact, the Central Appalachians are among North America's richest in biological diversity, in part due to the variety of life underground.

    Cave biology is the study of the animal specimens that live and evolve in caves. Learn about cave biology and cave animals in this article.

    Extractions: Spelunking . Go ahead, say it out loud it's a funny word. Spelunking. Spelunking is the recreational exploration of caves. The scientific exploration of caves has a different name. It's called speleology . In the same vein, you can probably guess what biospeleology is. It's the biology of caves, or cave biology Biospeleologists study cave organisms, as well as the ecosystems of caves. The unique conditions of caves make cave life mysterious and challenging to research. Caves are in constant darkness with high humidity. Nutrients are hard to come by, and many caves contain mixtures of gases (sulfur, methane) that can be lethal to many life-forms. Yet many organisms have evolved and adapted to live in this dank, dark environment.

    Extractions: Cave adapted animals are classic examples of regressive evolution, losing their eyes and pigment over time. Gains in other sensory systems compensate for the absence of vision. The bases for these developmental changes are genetic. For these reasons, cave animals are an important resource to study the genetics and development of the visual system and other sensory modalities. Their study can help shed light on current problems in medicine and biology. Table of Contents Main The Mission Cave Biology Facts Research Programs Planned Expeditions ... Email to Webmaster

    Educational materials and photographic tours on the formation and occurrence of different types of caves, cave biology, and cave conservation.  
    http://www.museumca.org/caves/onli_realm.html
    
    Extractions: As you will see, the formation and occurrence of caves depends upon the interaction of rock types and climate within the context of the landscape. Where these factors combine favorably caves of a given type occur. Speleologists recognize many cave types and have proposed various schemes of categorizing them. For this web site we use a scheme of realms emphasizing how the caves were formed rather than rock type.
