Budding speciation, mitochondrial capture and introgression between surface and cave lineages in the Asellus aquaticus species complex

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Replicated pairs of ancestral and evolutionarily derived populations provide opportunities to test hypotheses about the deterministic laws of evolution. The Asellus aquaticus species complex is an invertebrate model system with several independent surface‐to‐cave transitions and a complicated and unresolved evolutionary history.

Challenges Of Cave Management In A Developing Country: A Case Study Of Grotte Marie-Jeanne, Departemente Sud, Haiti [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
As with many developing countries, Haiti has environmental, economic and cultural challenges that complicate natural resource management. Karst landscapes dominate Haiti and caves are abundant as recent cave and karst inventory data indicate.

Integrative phylogenomics uncovers hidden diversity and repeated cave colonizations in Dinaric pseudoscorpions

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Subterranean ecosystems harbour exceptional biodiversity shaped by adaptation to extreme environments, yet remain poorly explored. Cave organisms, restricted to small, isolated populations, are extinction‐prone, making integrative species delimitation essential for biodiversity assessment and conservation.

The impact of declining groundwater levels on Stygofauna communities in the Leeuwin naturaliste ridge cave systems, Western Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDE 19s) are intrinsically connected to rainfall and groundwater for survival. Many ecosystems are becoming increasingly threatened due to the accelerating pressures of climate change and disturbances to connecting ...

Overview on karst geology of Vietnam

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica
Karst is widely distributed in Vietnam, covering almost 60,000 km2, approximately 20% of the total area of Vietnam. Most karst rocks crop out in North and Central Vietnam. Karst developed with peak-clusters, peak-forests, caves, etc.

Evolution Mechanism of Water-Conducting Fissures in Overlying Rock Strata with Karst Caves under the Influence of Coal Mining

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
There are a large number of karst caves in the limestone rock strata in the karst mining area, and the karst water in rock strata seriously restricts the safe and efficient recovery of coal resources.

Protected areas on international borders show uneven conservation outcomes

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Border protected areas (BPAs) are national protected areas that are immediately adjacent to a country's border or span two or more countries; they are characterized by distinctive opportunities and pressures. They play a critical role in protecting carbon‐rich ecosystems, conserving endangered biodiversity, reducing cross‐border environmental ...

Seasonal pressurization of a coastal karst: the paleolithic decorated Cosquer cave (SE France)

open access: yes, 2023
International audienceThe Cosquer cave is a paleolithic decorated cave, in a coastal karst linked to the sea. Stability of climatic parameters in caves is known to be one main condition for conservation of art.

Enhancing Recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, Texas: Measures, Outcomes, and Lessons for Karst Aquifers

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract Managed aquifer recharge is a widely adopted method that involves storing excess water underground for future use. While managed aquifer recharge has been applied globally to different aquifer types, its use in karst aquifers is less common due to the unique hydrogeological characteristics of these systems, including high permeability ...
