Where We're Going, We Won't Need Eyes to See: Distributional Range Size Drivers of European Subterranean Spiders

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding why closely related species can have drastically different distributional range sizes is a fundamental question in biology. However, answering this question is challenging due to the multiple inter‐related factors that shape species distributions, particularly in continental regions, where unclear ecological and geographic ...

Size of the cave bear population and skeletal distribution from Urşilor Cave, Romania

open access: yesTravaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza, 2016
Spatial distribution analyses of fossil bones are often used in cave taphonomy for i) assessing directly the size of a given fossil population and ii) indirectly, for palaeo-environmental reconstructions.

The Dark Star of Baisun-tau: a history of cave exploration in Southern Uzbekistan, 1990–2013 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Very little is known about the karst and caves in southern Uzbekistan, where some of the deepest caves in Asia have been discovered. In particular, the limestone plateau of the Baisun-tau mountain range has a tremendous potential for exploration.

70 godina časopisa Speleolog

open access: yesSpeleolog, 2022
The journal Speleolog started issuing in 1953, with the founder and editor-in-chief Slavko Marjanac and the original editorial board (Mirko Malez, Aleksandar Mujić, Beatrica Đulić and Irina Marjanac). During 70 years the journal encountered various challenges, such as irregular issuance and financial difficulties, which, however, did not stop the ...

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

Geological and hydrogeological research, tools for karst management in the north of the Caraş Gorges (Banat Mountains, Romania)

open access: yesTravaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza, 2010
The karst geosystems functioning frequently implies very quick mass and energy transfers, which make them highly sensitive to any natural or anthropogenic disturbance.

Temperature Series for 19 Caves Across the Western Italian Alps

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
We present a validated temperature dataset from 19 caves in the Western Italian Alps (2012–2025), offering over 160,000 records. Designed for reuse, the data enable future studies on cave microclimates, thermal buffering, and climate sensitivity in subterranean ecosystems. ABSTRACT Caves represent challenging systems for monitoring temperature dynamics.

Hidden Waters, Unique Communities: Subterranean Zooplankton Beta Diversity in the Caatinga Drylands

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Subterranean waters are important but understudied biodiversity reservoirs, particularly in the semi‐arid Caatinga biome. We quantified the biological uniqueness of zooplankton communities in these groundwater‐dependent systems and investigated how environmental conditions shape beta diversity.
