In the Haarlemmermeersebos, a public park in Noord

Holland and close to Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, a series of false limestone exposures have been constructed as an amenity. Slabs of Upper Palaeozoic, presumably Mississippian, limestones are arrayed in 'beds' at the heads of artificial gullies radiating from the southwest corner of a lake. Less convincing are (rare) vertical beds, drill holes and the flow of water from the lake into the gullies, not vice versa. A bridge, similar in appearance to a natural bridge, spans a gully and has partly collapsed.

Photos.At the island Voksa at Sunnmøre, a locality with littoral karren is found at a marble stripe just above the littoral zone. The Kamenitzas or bowl karren are circular to elliptical bowls, ca. 10 cm deep with detailed solution forms. Or-ganic mud is probably an important source of acid, karstforming environment at this seawa-ter influenced shoreline. Where wave action is more dominant, the bowls are eroded and the

Water flow is extremely uneven – at times of prolonged rainfall, water can flow very rapidly, but at other times it can be months or years before groundwater recharge happens. The great thing about caves is you can walk into them and observe how water in-filtrates into the ground and some lead down to

an aquifer. NCGRT researchers have installed the world's largest collection of drip-water measuring devices in Wellington Caves. They will also use stalagmites to estimate when groundwater recharge has occurred.

BRANAGAN, David (2013) : The Jenolan enigma: a century (plus) of attempts to unders-tand the regional geologyThe science of Jenolan Caves: What do we know? Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlDespite the significance of Jenolan Caves as an Australian tourist icon geology of the area has received little attention. Mapping of the cave system was commenced by early guides J. Wilson, F.J. Wilson and Wiburd, and particu-larly by Oliver Trickett who became Superin-tendent of Caves in 1897. This paper sets the karst system within regional geology and looks at changing views, often contradictory, in the perception of regional geology, from 1886 comments by Wilkinson, writings by David (1890s), Curran (1898), Sussmilch & Stone

(1915) and more recent studies by Branagan & Packham (1967), Sydney Uni. staff and stu-dents in 1980s, former Manager, E.

Sea level fluctuations control the growth –or demise- of a reef and the volume of sediment produced by the reefs and accumulated on a carbonate platform. This research was conducted to study recent sea level changes and their implications on the diagenetic features and processes of the limes-tones in the Celebes Sea.

PICKETT, John; PERCIVAL, Ian (2013) : Overview of the geology of the Jenolan Caves areaThe science of Jenolan Caves: What do we know? Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlJenolan Caves are developed in Jenolan Caves Limestone, one of many Upper Silurian carbo-nate deposits in Lachlan Orogen. The age of JCL is middle Ludlow (Late Silurian), based on reasonably precise evidence from cono-donts. This is consistent with other better dated Upper Silurian limestones in central NSW. Macrofossils such as tabulate and rugose corals, and sponge-like stromatoporoids that are found in the JCL suggest it accumulated in a shallow water, well-circulated marine environment. Volcaniclastic rocks lying ca. 50 m above the limestone and apparently confor-mable within the succession are undated, but indicate proximity to a source of acid igneous rock..

Waitomo Caves, NZ : 222. [abstract only].Zealandia is a piece of Gondwana, about 1/3 the size of Australia, but most of its continen-tal crust is underwater as submarine plateaux. The emergent part, New Zealand, covers about the area of Victoria + Tasmania, and carbonate rocks occupy about 3% of its area. So karst is scarce in NZ, making its conservation all the more important. Traces the geological history of NZ. There are remnant patches of Oligo-, Mio-, and Plio-cene limestones in many parts of the country, predominantly located on the flanks of ranges but sometimes found to 1500 m. These carbonates range from a few 10s to 700m in thickness. In some places, exhuma-tion of the eroded basement has revealed more ancient carbonates.

This report proposes a new technique to combine mea-surements of the lengths of wall scallops and their adjacent passage widths to determine the history of palaeo peak water velocity and volu-metric flow rate in a vadose canyon. The study site is at an active 10m high canyon in the Pool Sink section of the Ease Gill Cave System in the Yorkshire Dales, UK. (Author, GM).2014.0048 COOPER, Max P.; MYLROIE, John E. (2014) : Post-glacial speleogenesis: verifica-tion of a hypothetical model, and the origins of maze caves in glaciated terrainsCave and Karst Science, Vol. 41, no 2 (August 2014) : 84-95.Models proposed by Ollier and Tratman (1969), Mylroie and Carew (1987) and Faulk-ner (2009a) variously hypothesize that a cave is post-glacial if it is controlled by glacially


deranged drainage and contains no pre-Ho-locene signatures. Results of tests on these models have rarely appeared in subsequent literature. Epigenetic maze caves are a type of cave that forms at applicable maximum rates, allowing them to form post-glacially; however maze caves that form in the shallow subsurface are prone to removal by glaciation. These two constraints indicate that many maze caves in glaciated regions might have formed since the last glaciation.

displays major phreatic passages at three levels with only minor vadose modifications, suggests that they have developed over two or three deglaciation events. The small sizes and rarity of speleothems on Elgfjell suggests that they are all of Holocene age, and that any older deposits were removed during deglacia-tion (TF).2014.0052 FINNESAND, Torstein; BRATTLI, Tore (2010) : Antall grotter i KaledonideneNorsk Grotteblad, no 55 (Desember 2010) : 15-22.

Photo.Rannveig Skoglund defended for the PhD degree at the Univ. of Bergen in Norway, with the thesis: "Development of extreme karst porosity - maze cave in marble stripe karst". Maze caves in marble stripes display a reti-culate network pattern since cave conduits in metamorphic rock are dictated by fractures, faults and lithololgical interfaces. Maze caves form flow nets as they evolve by simultaneous dissolution of the most available fractures, which creates zones of extreme conduit po-rosity in the rock. The modeling experiments show that the characteristic conduit pattern of the surveyed caves evolved as a result of ice-contact, either in the outflow zone or parallel with the ice:rock contact.

JAMES, Julia M. (2011) : The Enigma of BellholesCave and Karst Management in Australasia XIX: Proc. 19th Aust'asian Conf. on Cave & Karst Mgt. Ulverstone, Tas. : 232-. 8 photos, 12 refs.Many caves in Gunung Mulu NP, Sarawak, Malaysia have outstanding displays of bell-holes. Prolific bellhole arrays are also found in the caves of the Neotropics and Madagascar. The riddle lies in how these surprisingly sym-metrical speleogens form. In Lagang Cave, beneath an exceptional display of bellholes, ACKMA members held a brain-storming session focusing on their formation, resulting in a wide range of theories. In recent speleo-logical literature, only two theories have been put forward which have been substantiated by research: that bellholes are formed by harems of bats, or are formed by condensation corro-sion. These two hypotheses will be combined into one, that bellholes are initiated and deve-loped by condensation corrosion and modified by bats.. (Author, GJM).2014.0055 KIRKLAND, Richard J.

Photos, surveys, figurs.A description, analysis and discussion of the mode of origin of the karst features south of the Svartisen Ice-cap. It concludes that the caves were formed sub-glacially under pseu-do-phreatic conditions, with brief periods of vadose development proglacially and during inter-glacial periods, and that the surface features of the karst were formed by glacial erosion. Pre-glacial or post-glacial cave forma-tion is discounted, although origin, as opposed to development, may have taken place during Tertiary times. Post-glacial development has been limited to slight modification of essen-tially glacial features, initially under proglacial conditions, and then under periglacial, vadose conditions.

Paragenesis, the enlargement of the passage around sedi-ment fill – mostly above – is globally very common, even bedding plane anastomoses may be “paragenetic” in origin and it is also a common characteristic of (glacier) ice- contact speleogenesis. Half tubes and pendants may also be formed in the epi-phreatic zone wit-hout influence of any sediment fill. In order to keep track of evolutionary sequences in caves, where overprinting is common, a system of passage (speleogen) classification according to superpositioned “order” is proposed.

The “cave entrance” proble-matics, in relation to “rock shelter” and “ove-rhang” is discussed from an ecological (photic zone), rather than exclusively a geologic and geometric point of view. The diameter of the light opening is used to classify rock shelter, rock bridges, tunnel caves, dolines and shafts. A self-explaining flow chart is suggested.

However, being as a result of sediment excess in the karst conveyor system, it is also a characteristic of the glacier ice-contact (i.e. subglacial) regime. In this case, paragenetic galleries and passage half-tubes may be regarded as a continuation of subgla-


cial esker systems. A unique feature of subgla-cial speleogenesis – and subglacial paragenesis – is topographically reversed flow from en-glacial hydraulic gradients superimposed onto adjacent karst.

Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlThe Jenolan Caves Limestone is ~370MY old and has been subjected to multiple extensive modification processes. These are so many and complex to unravel that considerable research necessarily focuses upon internal cave mi-cro-processes. Providing a framework of the history of JCL from its initial deposition phase may detect the broad sequence of agent effects, matchable by observations of features within and throughout the caves complex. Limes-tones are initially deposited as horizontal beds; modifications by agents in this geological phase leave a clear set of process signatures. An analysis of initial JCL bedding can provide a commencement point for a Jenolan develop-ment framework.

Potentially, the earliest processes affect unconsolidated or partially consolidated sediment during early diagenesis and are ine-vitably related to lithological contrasts. Such contrasts eventually become recognizable as specific horizons, to the extent that these 'inception horizons' become an intrinsic part of the preserved rock succession during syngene-

tic and mesogenetic diagenesis.

Fluids such as water may penetrate via more porous inter-bedded structures. Additionally; joints, faults or porous fill may allow internal access. A statement regarding the formation of these caves may include the following geological concepts: ‘Limestone caves' result from the weathering and erosion of rock (for the most part, over considerable time) the less resistant materials in the rock are being, or have been, removed; development of drainage allows a lowering of the water table and so a previously submerged space may become air-filled..

Howe-ver, it is not straightforward to decide whether the calcite crystals of the Tjorve cave system formed near the surface, after the formation of the cave system, or whether they formed deep in the crust, long before cave formation. This article presents one possible model: The ro-settes crystallized from hydrothermal solutions along the walls of open fractures, at several kilometers depth approx 300 mill years ago. It is emphasized, however, that the model has to be reconsidered when new data becomes available. (TF).2014.0075 LAURIOL, Bernard (2014) : Les cavernes de la Gatineau.

(2014) : Methane in Un-derground Air in Gibraltar KarstEarth and Planetary Science Letters, Vol. 374 : 71-84.Little is known about gaseous methane in karst. We report levels and δ13C of methane in atmosphere, soil and cave air at St. Michaels Cave, Gibraltar. Soil values are lower than the local atmospheric average of 1868 ppb and fall to 500 ppb. Abundance–δ13C rela-tionships suggest mixing of atmosphere with methane left after oxidation by bacteria. Cave air levels are also below local atmosphere but show strong seasonality related to ventilation, being lowest in the CO2-rich air that flows out from the cave in winter. A strong inverse relationship between CH4 abundance and δ13C indicates methanotrophy within the cave. Dynamically ventilated caves may act as a net sink for atmospheric methane.

Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlSpeleothem growth band variations in chemi-cal and isotopic composition are used to infer palaeo-climatic conditions. Interpretation of speleothem palaeo-climatic records may be improved by matching analysed sub-samples

to the represented elapsed time and prevai-ling weather or climatic conditions. Analysed sub-samples may represent a month for ra-pid growth speleothems or many years for slow speleothem growth. Speleothem growth may also be seasonally biased affecting the palaeo-climate record. To better understand the temporal fine scale of speleothem growth patterns we have principally used CO2 concentration in cave air… (Author, GJM).2014.0103 1.26 Chronology of subterranean fillings Chronologie de remplissages souter-rains

Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlThe multidisciplinary study of stromatolitic stalagmites in Nettle Cave, Jenolan Caves, commenced in 1989 and involved a number of investigators. Amino acids were used to prove that cyanobacteria have been colonizing stalagmites in the cave throughout their entire depositional history. Other experiments de-monstrated that they could be implicated in the processes that lead to their shape, and depo-sition and morphology of their calcite layers. The stalagmite composition allowed the past climate of Jenolan Caves to be assessed from the calcite and amino acids. The sticky surface generated by the cyanobacteria trapped aeolian material such as dust, pollen and flying insects.

Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlThe dating of cave and surficial sediments by Osborne et al (2006) provided first absolute dates of ancient materials at Jenolan Caves. These suggested that some sections of ac-cessible caves were likely to have formed in Early Carboniferous, before the deposition of volcaniclastic and mass-flow sediments dated at 340Ma. The growth of secondary fine illite, dated at 258Ma & 240Ma was taken to be evi-dence for burial of the caves under the Sydney Basin. These dates meant that a new chro-nology for cave development at Jenolan was required to supersede that of Osborne (1996). Construction of this new chronology has raised more questions than answers..

Cave & Karst Management 2013. Waitomo Caves, NZ : 224. [abstract only].The most important information that speleo-thems can reveal is about climate. There is concern about climate change and what may happen, but most evidence is derived from the Northern Hemisphere and it is not clear if pre-dictions apply in SH. We need to determine if known NH climate events are found in SH. If this can be confirmed, it increases the likeliho-od that climate predictions will apply to both hemispheres – even if there are leads or lags in events. Thus we need well dated high resolu-tion data from the SH that can be compared to data of similar quality from the NH. The best interval to examine is the last 2000 years, be-cause that's when the NH has its most accurate historical data and it's also the period of most

relevance to our near future… (Author, GJM).2014.0116 1.3 Special karsts Karsts spéciaux

[PP Presentation].Wide variety of karst-like landforms: towers, grikes, bedrock arches, solution basins (kame-nitza), underground rivers, caves & some silica or (rarely) carbonate speleothems; “pagodas” or pedestals” analogous to small karst towers; gnammas analogous to Kamenitsa; Deep kluftkarren or crevasses (Thailand). Sandstone caves often described erroneously as wind-ero-ded and/or pseudo-karst. Most sandstone caves initiate or develop at least partly by processes of dissolution, and are now regarded as karst features. Presence of salt accelerates silica disaggregation - a major factor in cavernous weathering especially near the sea. Insoluble residue usually greater than from limestone.

[notes, poster].Sandstones in WA, NT & NW Qld are Prote-rozoic, flat-lying, well- jointed, hard quartzites. Ruiniform Features: structurally controlled weathering and erosion (grikefields, stone cities, stone forests & pinnacles, associated caves, villas, arches, etc); Karst-like Features: dolines, blind valleys & streamsinks, caves, karren, pillars, speleothems etc. Arenisa-tion: solution along grain boundaries creates a packed sand that is easily eroded. Joints may guide water flow and focus solution to make “phantom” grikes and caves - parakarst. Ruiniform Relief results from strong structu-ral control ; development and excavation of "phantom" structures. Describes a number of caves.

(GJM).2014.0123 WHITE, Susan (2014) : Laterite karstCaves Australia, No. 196 (March 2014) : 19. Photo; 3 refs.Pseudokarst is a term for features that re-semble karst, but have not formed by enhanced solution; such features tend to form in rocks less soluble than limestone. Laterite karst is a special type of silicate karst that in turn is the type of parakarst (solution of non-carbonate rocks). The chemical and physical processes involved in the formation of laterites, and deep weathering profiles in general, are quite com-plex. Laterite karst can be compared to synge-netic karst in soft porous calcarenites – both have simultaneous solution and cementation and show the influence of caprocks (duri-crusts) on cave development.

Only in recent times have any of the caves had any protection, largely due to local caver Peter Crossley, our guide. At Rumley Cave the group received a traditional Maori welcome

before the iron manhole cover was opened; this was followed by a visit to Wiri Cave – 290 m long and the most spectacular lava tube in NZ.

Ces aménagements consistent à des remanie-ments de sols et de concrétions.

Photos.The cave passes under the road to Kalvatnet in Plurdalen and has several entrances. After the building of the power plant in the 60's the water flow is very reduced. Until today the water has been back on only one occasion, but it is possible that it happens again. In that case there will be a flood in the cave without any warning. The main entrance lies in a doline south of Sprutforsen. A through trip requires SRT and wetsuit is recommended. To go by the cliff at Sprutforsen, a 30 m rope is needed. Be aware of lose trees when belying. The en-trance named Hatcham hole is found between the main entrance and Sprutforsen, a little to the west. The passage is a narrow meander.

The area 4 km² contains many karst features The most promising caves were explored first. From 2011, surveying started and three of the caves connected. Markusgrot-

ta now has four entrances and nearby caves may be connected. As of 1 December 2013 the cave is the 6th longest in Norway with 3714 m, the longest north of Tjoarvekrájgge and pe-rhaps also the longest this far north.

Photos, survey.Some years ago the farmers Erling Dagsgard and Eldar Eggen discovered caves high up in Jotunheimen, South Norway. A long, nar-row limestone vein, visible on the surface for 9-10 km, is located at 1400-1700 m a.s.l. Six holes in the area can be defined as caves, with lengths 8-50 m. The highest is at 1542 m a.s.l. The river Geitåa flows in all caves but one. There are traces of collapse dolines. The caves may have been formed in connection with the melting down of the last ice age, but they may be older. A total of 158 m was mapped by Tom Ording Dahl and Torstein Finnesand in 2004. As far as we know this is the highest docu-mented cave site in Norway. (TF).2014.0656 DAHL, Tom Ording; RIAN, Trond (2012) : Grotter i LybekkdalenNorsk Grotteblad, no 59 (Desember 2012) : 13-20.

In Autumn 2010, Anders Westlund and Knut Davidsen made a renewed attempt to find

a connection between Bjørndalssjakta and Bjørndalshola, which had been left alone since 2001. They dug through the flood debris in Bjørndalssjakta to the previous limit, a wet crawl. This was passed to find a dam of loose stones, which was removed to lower the water level. After removing a further blockage and descending a few short climbs, the connec-tion to the main streamway in Bjørndalshola was established in an obscure corner that had not been observed previously. The use of North Sea survival suits greatly increased the comfort of the explorers. (TF).2014.0661 DAVIDSEN, Knut; GRUNDSTRØM, Svein (2011) : Innmåling av grotteåpninger i Plur-dalen, på.

Photos, survey.The dive in Greftsprekka sump was carried out with relatively "heavyweight" equipment. A drysuit and 2x7 liter sidemounted cylinders were used. The main way is around the corner of the sump pool at the southern end. Here an obvious rift descends. It gets gradually nar-rower until 17 m deep. At this point there is a distinctive ledge and the rift below is extre-mely small. It is possible that further progress could be made by working sideways along the rift to the north. However, visibility was already very poor as air bubbles dislodged large amounts of silt from the walls of the rift. If another attempt is made a stemple belay would be very useful.

There are reports, since 1950 of the exploration of dry caves, and of diving attempts around 2000. The author first visited the area in 2011 and arranged a small expedition of four cave divers to continue the exploration. In Store Sagelvgrotta, 430m of

line was laid, and another 100m explored wi-thout leaving line. A substantial airspace was encountered some 150m from the spring. This is believed to be part of Johanneshola. Another “Troglodytt” trip is planned. (TF).2014.0667 EIDISSEN, Lars (2011) : Salten Grotteklubb og “Caving in Nordland”Norsk Grotteblad, no 56 (Juni 2011) : 12-13.

However, caving trips has been limited to a couple each year. So cavers have arranged private trips. Through the closed Facebook group “Caving in Nordland”, many cavers established contact. Eventually they decided to organize their activities in a local club. The club was established in April 2011, and has so far 33 members. The club can be contacted at Facebook - Salten Grotteklubb (SGK). (TF).2014.0668 EIKELAND, Roar (2008) : Beinhola and NavnløsgrottaNorsk Grotteblad, no 50 (Juni 2008) : 49.

motivated by literature and survey of the cave system. The first fieldtrip brought to light a huge potential for great discoveries. During the Summer 2003 the motivation increased, and we decided the project to go further on. Totally 1308 m of diving line is laid out after 2005, of which 1005 m is in one length from Utløpet to the end of the discovered area. In addition to this, the huge air cambers are not surveyed.

Photos, survey.In July 2001, a group of 8 cave divers wanted to visit Kristoffergrotta in Stillelvdalen, Rana. Caving veteran Per Gunnar Hjorthen guided the team to the cave. Before they reached the entrance of the 600 m long cave, they found a new entrance. Having free dived the sumps, they returned a few days later and dived through the sumps once more, connecting the two entrances. The cave system is complex, with several levels and galleries.

Map, surveys, photos.Two significant caves, in Velfjord, Nordland county, and their hydrology were related to the local 1:5000 map by the author in 2000, and finally surveyed using rapid BCRA Grade 3 techniques by a small team in 2004. Nordlys-grotta is 423 m long and 33 m deep, and Marimyntgrotta is 611 m long and 36 m deep. Both caves could be extended further, and new entrances could be found. They could also perhaps be connected, because they are only about 14 m apart at one point. It is likely that the same stream flows from a dry Doline on the surface into The Meanders of Nordlysgrot-ta, before reappearing at the Marimyntgrotta streamway. The system is remarkable because of the extent of tectonic influence. (TF).2014.0672

FAULKNER, Trevor (2006) : Cave Inception and Development in Caledonide Metacarbo-nate RocksNorsk Grotteblad, no 47 (Desember 2006) : 10-11. Photos.Information about the stripe karst and non-stripe karst outcrops in central Scandinavia and their contained caves was assembled into computer based databases, enabling rela-tionships between the internal attributes of the caves and their external geological and geo-morphological environments to be analysed. Karst hydrological system distances are inva-riably shorter than 3.5km, and cave passages are positioned randomly in a vertical dimen-sion, whilst commonly remaining within 50m of the overlying surface. Five new inter-related conceptual models are constructed to explain cave development in metacarbonate rocks in the various Caledonide terranes.

The typical cave in south Nordland consists of a single passage that is less than 100 m long and less than 10 m deep. Because all cave passages remain within 50m of the overlying surface (except Ytterlihullet, at c. 93 m), they can be described as epigean. However, caves over a kilometre in length and over 100m in vertical range also occur in the area, and these can display extremely complex arrangements of inter-linked passages at several levels. The estimates presented in the article show that there should still be many thousands of caves to find in south Nordland, with total passage lengths of several hundred kilometres.

Rankings of cave dimensions, LGM ice thicknesses, Holocene uplifts, and valley depths are commonly in the same order. The main karstification control was the thickness of the Pleistocene icesheets. Greater karstification in N. Scandinavia arose partly because thicker icesheets and higher mountains caused greater deglacial seismic activity. This produced lon-ger and deeper inception fractures and deeper deglacial ice-dammed lakes, which enabled underlying caves to be enlarged by phreatic dissolution for longer periods.

Langskjellighatten, BrønnøyNorsk Grotteblad, no 58 (Juni 2012) : 11-22. Photos, maps, surveys, figure.Langfjorden is the innermost branch of Velfjorden, Brønnøy. Several caves are found in marble stipes running along the fjord and southwards. The caves at lowest altitude, at Aunhatten, have large entrances, enlarged by marine erosion and sedimented during post-glacial rebound. Their interior, phrea-tic passages were developed earlier, during deglaciation. The caves at higher altitude, at Langskjellighatten, were developed during cycles of glacial melt. The lowermost was just below sea level at deglaciation, and had some marine erosion. The uppermost were not in-fluenced by vawe action, and represent normal, interglacial phreatic speleogenesis.

Few studies attempt to provide timescales for the evo-lution of caves without deposits. This issue is addressed for complex caves formed in glaciated regions. Toerfjellhola in Norway is used to illustrate a methodology by which its development history can be deduced by consi-dering probable entrenchment and dissolution rates and local geomorphological changes, whilst working backwards in time and upwar-ds in elevation. It suggests that Toerfjellhola initially developed at the transition of MIS12 to MIS11c. The two caves probably became connected by a common flow route during the Eemian Interglacial at MIS5e.

Photos, survey, table.One year has passed since Rana Grotteklubb was restarted in 2011. The trip to Øyfjellgrot-ta in 2011 was the beginning of a very active year of caving exploration. In autumn 2011, members participated in trips to several less known caves. The club held a seminar on cave mapping techniques, and started a project of re-mapping Jordbrugrotta. In June 2011 they had 2 visitors from Finland, followed by several cave trips. Rana Grotteklubb had 26 members in 2011 and has 17 in 2012. The sea-son this year contains trips to local caves and a trip to Sweden, together with a local club. (TF).2014.0711 KARLSEN, Åge (2008) : RussågrottaNorsk Grotteblad, no 50 (Juni 2008) : 38. Photos.Russågrotta is a beautiful cave, formed in 100 % white marble. On the map it is easy to see where the Russåga river goes underground. The entrance is on the northern side of a dry riverbed, at the bottom of the bluff. A small rope is an advantage at the entrance and so are rubber boots inside the cave. The cave should not be visited during or shortly afterwards wet periods. (TF).2014.0712 KONSTENIUS, Niklas (2014) : Utforsknin-gen av grottene i Vadveriehppi-dalen 2008-2013

Norsk Grotteblad, no 62 (Juni 2014) : 24-28. Photos, survey.The cave Golfbanan was found by members of SSF in 2007. In the following years, 2008-2013, more than ten speleologists from SSF have been surveying and mapping this and other caves in the valley, connecting one after the other to the major cave systen of Vadve-riehppi. The system consists of both fossil and vadose passages, huge halls, narrow crawls and pitches which require SRT. There are se-veral others caves in the valley, some of them may be connected to the main system. This year, 2014, a greater range of SSF members and others are invited to the area to continue the work of mapping and exploration.

and the consequences for subglacial karstifica-tionProceedings of the 15th International Congress of Speleology, Vol 3 : 1581.Can caves be formed from “scratch” by ice-contact underneath or along glaciers or is this process more intensive under non-glacial conditions, so that ice-contact water can only widen pre-existing conduits? Apart from the initial aperture and length of the percolation paths through the rock mass, two factors are important: The concentration of glacial rock flour and its ability to interfere with the car-bonate chemistry. A series of thermostated dissolution experiments using marble and various additions of authentic glacier silt and crushed metamorphic rocks demonstrate and support theoretical considerations that subgla-cial speleogenesis in low CO2 waters is slower than first anticipated.

Examples from ScandinaviaProceedings of the 15th International Congress of Speleology, Vol 3 : 1582.Endokarst development in marble is entirely dependent of fracturing after the metamor-phosis of limestone to marble. The goal was to test whether marble endokarst distribution and intensity can be related to historic and pre-historic earthquake events. The Norwegian cave database was combined with a carbonate database and tested against a quality-screened set of all recorded earthquakes in the region. Earthquake epicenters and cave locations are not correlated. However, cave concentration and depth correlate better with the amount of Neogene uplift, suggesting that the guiding fractures originated pre-glacially and that cave inception commenced sometime after that.

The Glomdal speleological in Northern Norway project began in 1975. Exploration and survey 1976-1986 continued sporadically. Many caves have been documented, but little published. The aim of ”reviving” it is to com-plete a survey of all important caves to provide a basis for the final morphological and tectonic analysis. Of special interest is the possibility for paleocurrrent analysis, from scallops and cave morphology, to investigate phreatic and other flow under (glacier) ice-contact condi-tions. The longest, incompletely explored underground system, the Jordbekken was “punctured” by the discovery of Trudehola in 1979 and continued in 2010 when the Fosshul-let sump was dived and mapped.

So far 29 springs and sinks, 15 caves and cave entrances, as well as 95 dolines, fissures and other karst phenomena have been located. Surveying and excavation of these “new” objects has com-menced together with registration by GPS location. Hopefully this approach will test whether certain strata is more susceptible for karstification than others.

Many of these have influenced later ideas, and reading them will put the subject into a wider historical perspective. The first


articles to be reproduced, are three papers by Hans Reusch from 1877, describing a number of coastal abrasion caves in north-western Norway. The papers are distinguished through Reusch's artistically talented sketches, accurate cave maps and his explanation of the speleoge-nesis. They have influenced later geologists and archaeologists who continued the stratigra-phic excavations that were initiated by Reusch.

Earliest descrip-tions date back over one hundred years. The caves, developed in a metamorphic calcareni-tem display phreatic and paragenic morpho-logy and modern vadose incision. The contact meta-morphosis occurred during permo-carbo-niferous vulcanism. Karstification, in principle may be traced back in time to the Permian and Silurian. The cave fills suggests a high age with parts of the paragenesis occurring when the Scandinavian ice was in the Drammen valley.

Exploration of Fossholet-Trudehola had a ma-jor breakthrough from the upstream end during the diving in 2010. With 100 m of unknown exploration between them the system could become the longest in Rana, exceeding 5 km. A speleogenetic model for Trudehola is pre-

sented. Slammerbekkdalen, Kirkland (1958), is part of the Glomdal catchment and an important site for testing the hypotheses on ice dynamics and ice-contact speleogenesis. Work in the “effluent labyrinths” continued.

He led the “Bratvaag” expedition in 1930 discovering the remains of the balloo-nist Andrée who disappeared in 1897. After WW2 leading an expedition to Spitsbergen to rebuild lighthouses and navigation aids, he died there in July 1946. His cave studies are seen as the emergence of modern speleology in Scandinavia; his radical hypothesis of sub-glacial speleogenesis still offers a valid expla-nation. “Karsthuler in Nordland” interested French and British cavers and his speleolo-gical works inspired several generations of Norwegians.

They have block-covered floors around 115m a.s.l. and ceilings reaching 140m a.s.l. Morphology is dominated by frost action and breakdown with the largest blocks near the entrances where rounded weathering forms, like tafoni also occur. The deepest parts of Svarthole-ne display polished rock surfaces, similar to P-forms, indicating wave action. Sediment mineralogy indicates advanced, probably pre-glacial deep weathering as a primary spe-


leogenetic process, later exploited by erosion at a former high seastand.

Large karst areas are rarer and appear not to have the same amount of phenomena in proportion to their areas. “Mefjellet project” compiles the occurrence of carbonate rocks and karst landforms within one of the largest Norwegian karst areas. About 40 km2 with about 60% carbonate rocks it is relatively well explored with many large cave systems. However it is not yet adequately described to provide a quantitative test on cave and karst landforms relative to carbonate-non carbonate boundaries. This is an attempt to compile the existing data as a status quo for a systematic study.

The occur-rence of saprolite along fracture zones, contai-ning possibly preglacial, weathering products, suggests a straight-forward evolution sequence in a place protected from glacial erosion. The portal only escaped destruction from the intense surface denudation (stream cutting) as it is in the side of the major stream course. It is conceivable the features might have evolved through a time-span reaching well into and perhaps beyond the last glaciation.

Recent work challenges the old theory. Scandinavia has relatively small caves that often have surprisingly high ages, going beyond the limit of Th/U dating. The high ages are apparently compensated by correspondingly slow wall re-treat rates in the ice-contact regime, and longer periods when the caves were inactive. Ice-contact speleogenesis varies in time and space, in pace with waxing and waning of wet-based ice. Maze or labyrinth morphology appears as a characteristic feature of caves ascribed to these processes.

ka, soon after the valley was deglaciated. Data from Okshola shows that the Holocene was characterized by high-variability climate in the early part, low-variability climate in the middle part, and high-variability climate and shifts between two distinct modes in the late part. A total of nine Scandinavian stalagmite stable oxygen isotope records of comparable dating precision are now available for parts or most of the Holocene. None of them show a clear Holocene thermal optimum, suggesting that they are influenced by annual mean tem-perature (cave temperature) rather than seaso-nal temperature.

This contrasts with a number of caves along the coast of Nordland and Nord-Trøndelag, where a number of sites have been docu-mented with cave paintings and artefacts. The question is, can the equivalent be discovered in the limestone caves. A field of future research and also for the Norwegian Management for Cultural Heritage would be to explore karst caves as potential archaeological sites. In-creasing pressure from visitors with no res-trictions due to Norwegian legislation adds to the reduction of potential sources for a better understanding of past practice.

Reprint from 1877.Several caves at Sunnmøre were investigated and described, among them Dollsteinholet and Sjonghelleren. In Sjonghelleren, an archaeo-logical excavation were performed, and signs of human settlement were found. A common feature for these caves is their development along major fissures in steep, sea-facing cliffs. Such pre-existing fissures is certainly a result of earthquakes. The formation of the caves

were interpreted to be due to wave erosion along these fissures, where the rock was more vulnerable to abrasion. The timing would be at the end of the ice age, when the sea level was so high that the caves positions were reached by the impact of stormy wave action.

stream. Your journey ends in a rather big room (up to 25 m for roof level) from the roof there is a 17 m waterfall. This hits a little lake, 4-5 m deep.

It was too narrow and wet. (TF).2014.0749 SCHRADER, Sven-Jøran (2009) : Team Newcastle i TjorveNorsk Grotteblad, no 53 (Desember 2009) : 18-19. Photos, survey.Three cavers with a connection to the Univer-sity of Newcastle Caving Club participated in the 2009 expedition in Norway's longest cave, the Tjoarvekrajgge. After some indoor training at the Bonådalen school on Saturday, using first old-fashioned surveying techniques and then being introduced to the use of DistoX, they were given the task to survey in the cave.

Photos, map.What was later named "Ingeniørgrotta" in Bonådalen in Nordland, the Northern part of Norway, was discovered in 1996 by Pål Henrik Gulbrandsen, and temporarily explored by Iain Schrøder and Jan Erik Johansen. In the years 1997-2007, except 1999, annual expeditions with various participants - whom are only mentioned by their first names - have explored the Ingeniørgrotta and other caves connec-ted with it. The entrance is in the wall some meters above the bottom of a 25 m deep sink, some 440 m a.s.l., leading through narrow and muddy crawls to a series of ten pits. The sys-tem is far from fully explored, and many side passages and possible connections from the surface remain.

The cave passages show evidence of widening under water-filled (phreatic) conditions, with slow and ascending flow. Accordingly the cave had an effluent flow during the last stages of solutional widening. The direction of water flow corresponds to a topographically directed glacier flow during the deglaciation.

In the geological continuation from Svartt-jernsgrottene in Southern Norway, a new and quite promising karst area was found in 2007. After careful evaluation of topographical and geological maps, an area of potential was targeted and has so far yielded a great number of cave entrances, explored caves, springs and water-filled caves. Further exploration and mapping is in progress by members of “Tro-glodytt”. (Author, TF).2014.0800 Österreich / Austria / Autriche

SILVESTRU, Emil (2011) : Karst on Vancou-ver Island – an icy historyProc. 28th Biennial Conf. of ASF, Chillagoe 2011 : 24 p. 29 refs.Vancouver I. has highest density of caves in Canada though karstic rocks represent a small part of its geology. While all karst areas in Canada were covered by ice during last glacia-tion, VI karst had peculiar glacial conditions during Fraser Glaciation which have allowed a better understanding of karst processes be-neath Cordilleran Ice Sheet. Many caves, even at high elevation, have preserved very coarse rounded allochthonous sediments, incl. blocks >1 m in size, which are clear indication of paroxystic subglacial aquatic transportation. So subglacial karst was repeatedly submitted to high pressure, chemically aggressive water flooding followed by flushing which signi-ficantly enlarged the caves and established today's karst drainage.

Proc. 20th Australasian Conf. Cave & Karst Management 2013. Waitomo Caves, NZ : 192-208. 12 figs, 36 refs.A research project has been initiated to bet-ter understand the geologic, geomorphologic and hydrologic processes that have led to the evolution of karst landscapes on Vancouver I. – a mountainous region with a long glacial history and an active tectonic setting. This research aims to explain how bedrock geology, geological structures, recent and past tecto-nic uplift, glacial and inter-glacial events, sea level change and isostatic rebound may have

influenced, constrained and/or promoted karst development in this region. Research include detailed field work and mapping at a number of selected representative karst areas on Van-couver I., collecting information on bedrock geology, geologic structures, surface karst features, glacial materials/cover and hydrolo-gy.

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. This region is also important for palaeoclimate studies, as it is si-tuated in the transition zone between the Wes-terlies and the Indian Summer Monsoon. For more than 15 years Festival'naya Cave, now the Festival'naya-Ledopadnaya cave system, was the main focus of cavers' attention. Then, in 2011 the great potential of Dark Star Cave was revealed, after extensive new discoveries were made. (Author, GM).2014.1174 United Arab Emirates / Emirats arabes unis

Karstification and cave development on the eastern Tibetan Plateau are generally signifi-cantly decelerated or interrupted because of low temperatures and relatively dry conditions. Speleothems deposited in the late Pleistocene and the last thousand years imply active karsti-fication in Tibet during warm and wet intergla-cials. However, few caves have been surveyed on the eastern Tibetan Plateau, hindering the assessment of the processes influencing, and the degree of, cave and karst development in the region. Here, we present a truncated cave from the eastern Tibetan Plateau that initially developed under phreatic, and was further en-larged under vadose conditions.

Cave has formed in a very hard bed of quartz conglome-rate sandstone, confined beneath a much more resistant & impervious massive sandstone, ap-parently with a small amount of calcite in the matrix, solution of which served to loosen less


soluble material. Cave is electrically lit and attracts mostly local Thai tourists, proceeds going to associated temple. Fauna includes glowworm-like invertebrate. (GJM).2014.1248 DUNKLEY, John R.

Early trips concentrated on Mae Hong Son province, then to Kanchanaburi, Phangnga and Phitsanuloke where Thailand's longest cave was surveyed. There was also a diversion to Myanmar. On early trips over 50 km of new caves were surveyed incl. the deepest, 10 of the 17 longest and the tallest column in the world (61.5 m). Publications included 7 books, 22 research papers, 30 articles and six management re-ports. Considerable assistance was received from John Spies of Cave Lodge.

It summarises geological history, the fossil record and evolution of life across the continent and its mineral and ener-gy reserves, revealing the significance of its coastal and groundwater systems. The word ‘karst' only appears once, in relation to the 345 million-year-old Jenolan Caves.

Australia has 19 World Heritage properties – many with karst-associated values. There was a UNESCO Global Geopark until it was torpedoed by political ideologies. Australia recognises significant ‘national' landscapes including many with karst values. There are other areas such as Nullarbor limestone karst and sandstone karst and karst-like landscapes of northern Australia which are worthy of Wor-ld Heritage but this is prevented by Australia's political and cultural systems. Paper reviews karst areas of Australia in regard to their inter-national and national significance. Comment is made on what Australia's karst resources offer the nation.

Journal, No. 88 (September 2012) : 18. 2 photos.The Department of Environment and Natural Resources Habitat Recovery Team and the Cave Exploration Group of South Australia have cleaned rubbish from Sand Cave which was added to Naracoorte Caves NP in No-

vember 2011. It has generated great interest from cavers, palaeontologists and researchers and should be added to the World Heritage area in future. An inventory of the cave's va-lues is to be undertaken.

This semi-arid environment is famous for its low relief, lack of vegetation and lack of surface water. The landscape is often considered featureless, but many karst landforms can be found including dolines, blowholes, dongas, relict river courses and caves (containing a variety of speleo-thems). Karst features (blowholes, dolines, shallow and deep caves) are concentrated in 2 bands running roughly parallel to cliffed coast and Hampton scarp (coastal scarp). A ~20km wide coastal band of features is seen only when all karst features are plotted on one map.

Journal, No. 90 (March 2013) : 11-28. 26 images, 46 refs.Outlines the history of Blanche Cave from 1845. Official tours began in 1886 following the appointment of a caretaker. William Red-dan, the second caretaker, became famous


for his lively and entertaining tours; he later installed pathways, handrails, stairs and tables, making access easier. In 1917 the reserve was gazetted a Public Pleasure Resort and placed under the control of the Tourist Bureau. Also covers heritage listing, vertebrate fossils, a new era of fossil research from 2001, the involvement of science in the interpretation of Naracoorte Caves, linking research and com-munication and stories from the strata.

[abs-tract only].Between 1962 & 1995, four young men di-sappeared without trace after traversing parts of Tasmania's southern wilderness karst. To this day, the disappearance of 15-yr-old Guy Bardenhagen near Mount Picton in Jan. 1962 remains a mystery. In Oct. 1969, John Boyle became lost when separated from three other cavers in sub-alpine dolomite karst on NE ridge of Mount Anne. A 26-yr-old man, Robert Ferguson, disappeared in or near the Ida Bay karst at Easter, 1984.

Ulverstone, Tas. : 245-257. 5 maps, 4 photos, 50 footnotes.Surveyor J.H. Wedge clambered knee-deep through swamps while searching for grazing land in Circular Head region in 1828. Dismal Swamp, one of a few intact poljes in Tasmania today, formed part of the swamp area on his map which he believed could be profitably drained. Like nearby Mowbray, Montagu, Welcome and Brittons swamps, Dismal was a favourite habitat of blackwood (Acacia me-lanoxylon) — a staple of the Circular Head sawmilling industry for more than a centu-ry. When logging began in Circular Head, swamps were synonymous with disease, degradation and fear of the primeval. Clearing them represented not just financial profit but social justice..

At Mole Creek, Wet Cave was early recognised as a significant cave and exaggerated claims were made for connections. SCS was formed in 1965 primarily to look for the MC master cave. There were various theories about hydro-logy at MC; in 1959 Joe Jennings established that MC system breached a hydrological di-vide, that Westmorland Ck had been captured underground by Mole Ck. SCS made a link in 1965 between Shish Kebab and Wet Cave.

After a century the rockfall in Wet Cave was breached.

Map, photo, ref.Exit Cave is a large, multi-entrance system in S. Tasmania. Currently STC is undertaking a multi-year mapping project. An anabranch of D'Entrecasteaux River sinks and resurges twice before sinking a third time to reappear in Exit Cave. An attempt to dive the connection in 1995 was unsuccessful. A new attempt to dive the sump was initiated in February 2013. A 70 m dive led to discovery of new passage, ‘Never Say Die', followed by two further sumps; these led to further sections of dry passage but each were blocked by breakdown. Low water levels enabled access to D'Entre-casteaux River Third Sink IB-232 but this also terminated in rockfall. The new discoveries were surveyed; the gap between the sink and Exit Cave had been reduced from 250 to 50 m.

Ulverstone, Tas. : 15-45. 15 maps, 8 photos, 39 refs.A significant portion of the Tasmanian Wil-derness WHA is underlain by karstic bedrock in terrain having high relief and high rainfall. With such ideal conditions for the develop-ment of extensive caves and other karst fea-tures, it is no surprise that the limited explora-tion of the karsts of the Tasmanian wilderness to date have yielded discoveries of impressive cave systems and other features. It is also notable that with a few exceptions, most ex-ploration of wilderness karst to date has been

issues-driven, focussing on areas such as the karst of the Lower Gordon and Franklin Rivers when, and because, they were under threat from development proposals..

Ulverstone, Tas. : 301. [abstract only].The Togari Group of younger Precambrian rocks in the Smithton Basin of far NW Tas-mania includes two thick horizons of karstic dolomite, separated by volcanics and clastic sediments. These were folded into a broad N-S oriented synclinorium, and reduced to a broad coastal plain by a long period of continuous sub-aerial erosion lasting over 400 mill. yrs. Lateral karstic corrosion at the water table has created very broad, flat and swampy karst plains on the Smithton Dolomite in the Duck and Montagu River valleys. This plain is one of the largest distinctively karstic landscapes in Tasmania. Mound springs are a notable feature but high water tables and flat relief mean that only a few caves have developed on isolated residual outcrops of dolomite..

It is thus one of 7 Australian WH properties (out of 19) with internationally recognised karst values. The Mole Creek karst is also home to a significant population of farmers, foresters and people developing tourism businesses – one of the few parts of Australia where a dynamic karst landscape provides the background to the well-being of the local community..

A great deal more was achieved than could have been done in seven day trips.

Ulverstone, Tas. : 297. [abstract only].We show that cave glowworms synchro-nise their bioluminescence by detecting and matching each others' glows. Studies in wild caves at Ida Bay, show that where A. tasma-niensis are located in the cave mouth, expe-riencing cycles of daylight and darkness, they still possess an underlying rhythmic tendency to glow most brightly during the day, like their counterparts deeper in the cave. When cave mouth larvae are placed in constant darkness in the laboratory, they show a free-running en-dogenous rhythm with a peak occurring during daylight hours. We conclude that this under-lying rhythmicity is modulated by exposure to natural light, inhibiting the glowing during daylight hours..

Proc. 20th Australasian Conf. Cave & Karst Management 2013. Waitomo Caves, NZ : 163-172. 12 figs, 4 refs.Waitomo Glowworm Caves have the most visited glowworm display in the world. Prior to 2009, glowworm monitoring was based on intermittent quadrat counts at 2 sites. A characteristic of the quality of the display is extent of colony's coverage of the cave ceiling and walls so monitoring should encompass as large a proportion of the colony as possible. Experimental long-exposure photomonito-ring was developed. Data from the ensuing 2 yrs showed that monthly photomonitoring

provided useful population counts, but a less labour-intensive method with better resolution data was required to gain a proper understan-ding of glowworm population and biological cycles… (Author, GJM).2014.1649 ĆURČIĆ, Srećko B.; VRBICA, Maja D.; AN-TIĆ, Dragan Ž. ; ĆURČIĆ, Božidar Petar M.; VESOVIĆ, Nikola (2014) : Duvalius (Paradu-valius) petrovici sp. n. and D.

DRIESSEN, Michael (2011) : What turns glow-worms on? Baseline monitoring of the Tasmanian glow-worm and other cave fauna in Exit and Mystery Creek cavesCave and Karst Management in Australasia XIX: Proc. 19th Aust'asian Conf. on Cave & Karst Mgt. Ulverstone, Tas. : 296. [abstract only].Exit Cave and Mystery Creek Cave in Ida Bay karst in SE Tasmania contain a diverse and significant cave fauna. The most superla-tive faunal feature of these caves is the light displays by Tasmanian Glowworm Arachno-campa tasmaniensis. These displays have been recognised as a world heritage value under criterion relating to outstanding natural pheno-mena. Remarkably, there has been no previous study on the ecology of Tasmanian glowworm. Glowworms and other cave fauna were mo-nitored monthly for 24 months to obtain information on their ecology and to establish baseline population data. A strong seasonal pattern was found for glowworms, with pupae and adults most common in spring and sum-mer.

rest-adapted species in AustraliaCave and Karst Management in Australasia XX. Proc. 20th Australasian Conf. Cave & Karst Management 2013. Waitomo Caves, NZ : 156-162. 4 figs, 9 refs.Glowworms emit light to attract prey into their webs. In wild caves of Tasmania and New Zealand, glowworm populations (Ara-chnocampa tasmaniensis and Arachnocampa luminosa, respectively) maintain synchronised rhythmic light output, waxing and waning to-gether in a 24 hr cycle. I show how Tasmanian species is capable of synchronizing the biolu-minescence cycle. In laboratory we exposed a larva to 3 others that were on a different cycle. The single larva shifted its time of glowing to match the others over about 8 days. This synchronisation capability probably allows the glowworm colonies in caves to glow most brightly all at the same time, attracting more flying insects into their webs… (Author, GJM).2014.1678 MOLERO BALTANÁS, Rafael; GAJU RI-CART, Miquel; LÓPEZ DOS SANTOS, Néstor; OROMÍ, Pedro; BACH DE ROCA, Carmen (2014) : The family Nicoletiidae in the Canary Islands, with description of new taxa (Insecta: Zygentoma).European Journal of Entomology, 111 (2) : 267-274.http://dx.doi.org/10.14411/eje.2014.032Canariletia holosterna gen. n. et sp. n.: Mina de los Llanetes (Valsequillo), Gran Canaria.

They are preadapted for life in caves, having no eyes or pigment and being detritus feeders. 41 species of cave-dwelling Nicoletiids/Protri-nemurids have been described since I last pre-sented a paper of the same name in 1976, 5 of these from Australian caves. Recent extensive sampling of rock deposits in Australia prior to mining is revealing an extensive and diverse Nicoletiid fauna inhabiting the mesocaverns suggesting that the cave fauna may just be an extension of the mesocavern fauna. Molecular biology is being used to supplement the mor-phological taxonomy of this primitive insect group. (GJM).2014.1699 SOUZA-DIAS, Pedro G.

6 (Nov 2013) : 539-545.Island biogeography, the study of distribution, richness and dynamics of species on isolated patches of habitat, is central to our understan-ding of what determines species diversity on Earth. Land snails are organisms particularly suited for answering questions pertaining to the factors that determine island species–area relationships, because of their dependence on edaphic conditions, low migration rates and high speciation rates. In this study, we analyse the land snail fauna on 13 islands of diverse geological origin off the coast of Sabah, as well as one mainland site.

Etudiés par Jean-Pierre Jéquier, ces vestiges ont fait l'objet d'un court article dans Cavernes en 1961.En 2012, René von Kaenel, membre du groupe qui a découvert ce gisement, a fait don à la col-lection SpéléOs des restes osseux et dentaires de jeunes ours brun, qu'il avait jusqu'à présent précieusement conservés. Ces pièces paléon-tologiques partiellement étudiées par Jéquier (1961) font l'objet dans le présent article d'une description plus détaillée. Elle est omplétée par la présentation d'un ourson relativement bien conservé qui n'avait pas été répertorié par J.-P. Jéquier lors de la première étude.

based on capture records or observations in caves. Eight species have been recorded. The use of bat detectors to remotely record and identify calls from bats in flight has greatly enhanced bat survey efficiency and prompted the recording of bat calls from cave entrances and nearby habitats. The project took place over 2011-12, the period covered being divi-ded into two sections corresponding to diffe-rent ecosystems. The results are presented. The majority of identified calls were from Chalino-lobus morio and C. gouldii. There is a need to establish consistent population data at least for known maternity sites, Weebubbie and Webbs caves.

LEAR, Kristen (2012) : An American in Australia: Monitoring the maternity colony of Southern Bent-wing bats (Miniopterus schrei-bersii bassanii) at Naracoorte Caves National Park, South AustraliaAustralasian Cave and Karst Management Assoc. Journal, No. 86 (March 2012) : 15-18. 5 photos, 6 refs.The Southern Bent-wing Bat is an obligate cave-dwelling bat with a restricted distribu-tion, occurring only in SE South Australia and SW Victoria. It is listed as critically endange-red due to a severe population decline from over 100,000 in the 1960s to 30,000 in 2009. The species is dependent on just two mater-nity caves. Project was to accurately estimate population numbers and trends at Bat Cave site to help guide management strategies and aid in the recovery of the species. Community outreach projects will bring awareness and understanding of bats to the public. (Author, GJM).2014.1870 LI, Jie; LI, Xin-Hui; MAYDEN, Richard L.

[PP presentation].Discusses variety of habitats for roosting and foraging. Interior – bats actively select roosts to meet their preferences, which vary sea-sonally. Exterior – vine thickets, woodlands and built-up areas all offer foraging potential. Bats have morphological features to assist them to locate and access their preferred food. Different foraging techniques often reflected in wing shape and flight characteristics. Diffe-rent prey will require different echolocation skills and hunting techniques. All these result in ‘field characteristics', some of which are suf-ficient for identification..

Naturelles, Vol. 94, no 1 : 3-24.http://www.e-periodica.ch/digbib/view?pid=bsv-002:2014:94#9L'importance patrimoniale chiroptérologique de septante-deux cavités souterraines du Jura vaudois (Suisse) a été déterminée à partir de captures réalisées durant la période du rassem-blement automnal entre 2002 et 2010.Dix-huit cavites d'importance patrimoniale majeure ont pu être identifiées et ce travail préconise qu'elles soient protégées en priorité. Ce sont: onze grands sites de rassemblement automnal, situés dans le Haut-Jura et formant le plus grand réseau européen connu; six cavi-tés du pied du Jura entre Vallorbe et Baulmes visitées par les espèces les plus rares et mena-cées en Europe (petit rhinolophe Rhinolophus hipossideros, minioptere de Schreibers Mi-niopterus schreibersii et barbastelle d'Europe Barbastella barbastellus) et une cavité avec un nombre important de captures. D'autre part, onze cavités sont d'importance patrimoniale élevée, vingt-sept cavités sont d'importance moyenne et seize cavités sont d'importance mineure (absence de capture).Parmi les quatorze espèces de chauves-souris rencontrées, l'oreillard brun Plecotus auri-tus est l'espèce la plus abondante et la plus largement répartie. La distribution et l'abon-dance relative d'espèces peu connues comme le murin de Bechstein Myotis bechsteinii ou le murin de Natterer Myotis nattereri ont pu être mieux cernées. Enfin, le petit rhinolophe Rhinolophus hipposideros, considéré comme disparu du canton depuis 35 ans, a été redé-couvert.

giques de l'intensite du rassemblement autom-nal de chauves-souris.En comparaison avec d'autres sites européens, avec au minimum une moyenne quotidienne de 700-1100 visites de chauves-souris durant le mois d'août, ce gouffre est un site d'impor-tance patrimoniale majeure pour les rassemble-ments automnaux et sa fonctionnalité doit, en conséquence, être garantie à long terme.Le rassemblement automnal débute à la fin juillet, son intensité est maximale entre le 15 août et le 10 septembre. Pendant les rassem-blements, les chauves-souris sont les plus actives entre 4 et 7 heures après le coucher du soleil. L'intensité de l'activité est étroitement liée aux températures élevées, à l'absence de précipitation et à un vent faible. Une forte acti-vité est également observée au début duprintemps alors que les chauves-souris sont quasiment absentes durant la période estivale.La description de la phénologie annuelle et journalière couplée au modèle prédictif d'ac-tivité basé sur les conditions météorologiques seront notamment utiles aux chiroptérologues pour optimiser leurs opérations de captures ou de suivis acoustiques.

In the Philip-pines, caves is one of the habitats that harbour numbers of ecologically important species that needs a serious attention for protection. Caves are important habitat for bats, it is estimated


that there are about 78 species of bats in the archipelago and over 30 of them depends on caves for their life history and survival. The Bat Cave Prioritization Index attempts to create a standard index for evaluating bat caves for conservation based on two limita-tions, the biological and geophysical potential of caves.

When possible, swiftlets nest in totally dark parts of caves. This prevents most predation on eggs, young and incubating adults. Most swiftlet species can echolocate so nesting in dark caves is not a problem. Howe-ver, a few predators are able to either reach the nests or prey on birds flying to and from nests. In response, swiftlets have developed anti-predatory behaviour. To reduce predation of adults flying into and through the cave: the birds enter and exit caves in groups, increase flight speed at the entrance, and feed their young less frequently than comparable species


that do not nest in caves. (Author, GJM).2014.1917 TENNYSON, Alan J.D.; SCOFIELD, R.

Photo, ref.Snottites are colonies of single-celled extre-mophilic bacteria which hang from the walls and ceilings of caves and are similar to small stalactites, but have the consistency of snot, a slang word for nasal mucus. They derive their energy from chemosynthesis of sulfur com-pounds including H2S and warm water solu-tion dripping from above, producing sulphuric acid. Because of this, their waste products are highly acidic (approaching pH=0), with simi-

lar properties to battery acid. There could be similar life on Mars.

Spread of the disease is be-lieved to occur mainly by bat movements but it might also be carried by people, hence the importance of decontamination of equipment used in caves overseas before it was brought to Australia. It is also vital that any sightings of bats which may be infected be immedia-tely reported to Wildlife Health Australia or Emergency Animal Disease Watch. Advisers also provided in relation to histoplasmosis and lyssavirus.

Photo, 8 refs.An innovative project supported by the ASF Karst Conservation Fund has been trying to estimate the population of ghost bats (Macro-derma gigas) in the Mt Etna population using GPS technology to determine their foraging range and collect tissue samples. 35 bats were caught, marked and sampled during 2011-13; flight data has been retrieved from only one bat. Study of DNA has given a population es-timate of 30. Further protective measures and studies are anticipated.

Photo.Chief Veterinary Officer has appealed to the


Australian speleological community to be aware of the debilitating fungal ‘White Nose Syndrome' in bats. Currently neither the syn-drome nor the fungus has been identified in Australia. However if WNS were to occur here it could have similarly devastating effects on Australian bats as those in the US and Canada. Cavers and cave managers travelling interna-tionally should avoid bringing in equipment used overseas, especially from areas where WNS is known. Caving gear should be cleaned between trips. Cavers should also be alert to the occurrence of chest infections and pneu-monia which may indicate Histoplasmosis.

Cave stream invertebrate com-munities are resource limited with a depen-dence upon surface-derived energy resources, such as FPOM and CPOM. This dependence was assessed down a longitudinal gradient within a cave stream using stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen, pre-conditioned replicate algal tiles and leaf packs. Also investigated was potential for cave aquatic communities to subsidise subterranean terrestrial communi-ties… (Author, GJM).2014.1990 3.3 Regional biospeleology Biospéléologie régionale

Currently the southern part is under threat from quarrying. The plant checklist records 223 species representing about 34% of mosses and 16.2% of vascular plants that grow on limestone in Peninsular Malaysia. Of these, 32 species (14%) are of conservation importance either because they are endemic (19 species,


of which 3 species are endemic to Gunung Kanthan), endangered (12 species) or rare (11 species).

Although there were major surveys and Dark Cave at Batu became the most in-tensively biologically investigated cave in the region, until the 1970s there was little change in the prevailing view that tropical caves had little of speleobiological importance. Key ad-vances in speleobiology in the last half century that have changed this perception and drawn attention to tropical cave biology are briefly discussed, and their possible significance for the research potential of the Batu caves as-

sessed. (Author, GM).2014.2068 MOSELEY, Max (2014) : History of biolo-gical investigations at Batu caves, Malaysia, and consequences for the progress of tropical speleobiology: Part 1 - the 19th centuryCave and Karst Science, Vol. 41, no 2 (August 2014) : 52-56.Until the 1970s speleobiologists mistakenly believed that troglobionts - highly adapted obligate subterranean animals - were rare or absent in tropical regions. This error probably held back the development of tropical cave biology for several decades. It is argued here that the mistake originated in the late 1890s during an investigation of Batu caves by the prestigious British Association for the Ad-vancement of Science. Part 1 of this paper describes these events in the context of the development of speleobiology during the 19th century.

Waitomo Caves, NZ : 84-155. 2 maps, numerous photos, 3 tbls, 43 refs.http://www.researchgate.net/publica-tion/269338570The Gunung Mulu World Heritage Area (Mulu) is situated in the north eastern corner of Sarawak , Malaysia on the Island of Borneo, adjacent to the South China Sea. The area was prescribed as a national Park in 1974. The current preliminary survey aims to provide a basis for future biological surveys in Mulu by building upon the only other substantial bios-peleological survey undertaken in the area by Chapman (1982). The current preliminary sur-vey aims to provide an initial overview of the invertebrate fauna in the cave systems near the Park Headquarters and predominately in those used as tourist caves and adventure caves. The


survey was undertaken between the 29th April – 12th May 2012. (Author, GJM).2014.2070 MOULDS, Timothy; ANDERSON, Jay; ANDERSON, Ross (2013) : So what lives at Mulu?

It was inscri-bed on UNESCO World Heritage list in 2003 for its outstanding geomorphological features. The central park area is approximately 860 km2 and contains over 300 known caves, although to date no investigation of the fauna has occurred, despite the high likelihood of a significant endemic cavernicolous fauna. The current survey was undertaken in May 2010 and provides an initial overview of inverte-brate fauna in Phong Nha River Cave, Bi Ki Grotto, Fairy and Royal Grottos and Tien Son Cave + Dark Cave. The study collected 248 individual specimens, representing at least 41 species from the caves examined. (Author, GJM).2014.2084 3.34 Africa Afrique

Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlThe invertebrate fauna known from within the caves at Jenolan is summarised. At least 128 individual taxa have been identified although less than half are assigned to described spe-cies. Many of the taxa recorded are accidental visitors to the caves and such adventitious species form an important energy source for the true cave inhabitant species. Further work by taxonomic specialists is required for the remaining taxa to be completely identified and for many new taxa to be described. Key groups for further field work are identified and some recommendations given for the conservation of cave-dwelling species. (Author, GJM).2014.2092 MUSSER, Anne M.

The Jenolan Karst Conservation Reserve is home to many vertebrate animals, vulnerable or endangered species such as brush-tailed rock-wallaby, spotted-tailed quoll and Sooty Owl. However, until recently there have been few studies to quantify vertebrate species and identify gaps in our knowledge. On-site obser-vations and recent targeted faunal surveys are helping to greatly expand our understanding. Many ‘hot spots' have been identified, inclu-ding the highly trafficked Grand Arch, which is home to brush-tailed rock-wallabies, quolls, bats and rock warblers.

Collected: 7 classes, 18 orders, 42 families, 53 spp.; most near entrances and not troglomorphic. Six potential troglobiontic and stygobiontic spp: hydrobid snail, scor-pion (3rd troglobiont scorpion from mainland Australia), polydesmid millipede, platyarthrid isopod, amphipod, and meenoplid planthopper. The diversity of subterranean fauna in Bullita is significant; future systematic collecting will no doubt reveal more. (Author, GJM).2014.2094 Australia / Australie

Ulverstone, Tas. : 300. [abstract only].Lake Cave, Margaret River, Western Australia is renowned for its spectacular underground lake. The cave has been visited by tourists for more than 100 yrs and attracts >44,000 visitors annually. Besides its tourism values, the cave harbours a Subterranean Groundwater De-pendent Ecosystem comprising aquatic sub-terranean invertebrates (stygofauna) recently

nominated as a Threatened Ecological Com-munity (status critically endangered). Ground-water levels in Lake Cave have been declining since 2005 causing a noticeable reduction in the size of the lake, reducing its visual appeal and endangering the stygofauna community. Without intervention, at the current rate of de-cline the lake will be dry in 2-3 yrs.. (Author, GJM).2014.2097

Journal, No. 92 (September 2013) : 5-12. 2 maps, 15 photos.Provides a geological and historical back-ground to the largely soluble islands of Malta. There are 7 caves open to the public, some of which are show caves; there are many sea caves. Describes Ghar Dalam (significant prehistory site, covering 130k yrs), St Pauls Cave (and catacombs), Ghar Hasan (provided refuge for Hasan, no management), Calypso Cave (where Calypso supposedly imprisoned Odysseus for 7 yrs), Xerris Grotto (guided, poorly), Ghar Ninu (self-guided, well deco-rated), Blue Grotto (visit by boat, a highlight of a Malta visit), Azure Window (natural arch on Gozo, disintegrating) and so-called cart ruts which may be solution features.

SIMMONDS, Vince (2014) : An overview of the archaeology of Mendip caves and karst : 67 p.The Mendip Hills are a dominant topographic feature comprising a high steep-sided plateau that stretches from north-west to south-east diagonally across much of the northern region of Somerset. This overview puts forwards some suggested reasons why caves might have been utilised, what occurred during this usage for a range of activities and a description of the evidence that has been found to support this is given. It draws on data from a number of sources including written works, online databases and other electronic media to build a timeline of the human use of Mendip caves, the information is presented in text and tables.

Trench A : a faunal occupation dating to MIS 3, between 50,000 and 30,000 BP. Two flint blades of Upper Palaeolithic appearance were discovered along with a faunal assemblage across the line of the grille. The earlier excavations in the cave by Col. E.R. Wood were extensive and he excavated to bedrock. The standing section (Area B) which he left exposed further along the main cave passage was also cleaned, recorded and sam-pled. The deposits contain a faunal assemblage dominated by microfauna, but no cultural arte-

facts from the mid-Devensian to Late Glacial and Holocene. (Author, NTU).2014.2140 COOPER, John (2014) : Digging a Gower ResurgenceDescent, No 238 (June/July 2014) : 42.Archaeological dig at the resurgence pool at Parkmill, Gower, South Wales (GM).2014.2141 4.12 America Amérique

Many archaeological excavations from 1960 to 1970 and surveys revealed many paintings on the walls. In July 2013 a team further explored the walls and ceilings and experimented with different photogrammetric recording tech-niques, including microscopy and post-site digital analysis. This paper summarises the long archaeological history of the site, obser-vations and analysis of selected painted panels.

/TAN, Noel Hidalgo; TACON, Paul S. C. (2013) : Rock art and the sacred landscapes of mainland Southeast AsiaRock Art and Sacred Landscapes. One World Archaeology, Vol. 8, Chapter 5 : 67-84.Across mainland Southeast Asia, rock art sites often coexist with sacred shrines and temples of Buddhism and Hinduism. We examine the coexistence of rock art with religious shrines in Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos. The rock art of Southeast Asia is thought to be from the prehistoric period. The introduction of Buddhism and Hinduism in the early Chris-tian Era reconfigured these painted landscapes for their own use, where they are still in use to-day, either in harmony or as indifference to the earlier rock art. Is this coexistence confluence or coincidence ? (Author, LP).2014.2145

(2012) : Uranium-series age estimates for rock art in southwest ChinaJournal of Archaeological Science, Vol. 39 : 492-499.We report the first uranium-series age esti-mates for rock art in China. Calcite bracketing a paint layer was used to constrain the age of a naturalistic outline hunter-gatherer painting in the Jinsha River area of northwest Yunnan Pro-vince (southwest China). The rock paintings in this region are unique in style and content compared with other bodies of rock art in Chi-na, which are dominated by Neolithic subject matter. The minimum and maximum ages were determined using isochron techniques on multiple samples of calcite from above and beneath the paint layer. A large painted deer head was dated to between 5738 and 2050 years. (LP).2014.2146 Malaysia / Malaya / Malaisie

Arnhem Land. On basis of 1) dating beeswax underlying pigment art, 2) presence of a pro-bable contact motif, and 3) traditional owner comments, it appears that the most clearly visible art in the rockshelter was produced within the past 600 yrs, with most recent AD 1845-1940. Studies of motif superimpositio-ning also suggest that at least three functional-ly distinct phases have occurred in the recent period rock art. Spatial mapping of major art styles indicates latest styles are restricted to central and largest panels, affording them visual prominence with the highest dramatic impact.

Ulverstone, Tas. : 63-78. 3 maps, 9 photos, 54 footnotes.Dan Pickett, the house-breaking son of a Berkshire ‘strumpet' may have been Australia's first professional cave guide. In his adopted


home, Tasmania (Van Diemen's Land), the ex-convict host of the Chudleigh Inn cultivated a reputation as a vice-regal guide to Wet Cave, probably in order to reinvent himself. Separa-ting fact from fantasy in Pickett's career is not easy. In the tradition of cave gurus elsewhere, he took on an heroic status as underground explorer. Despite his age and being the subject of legend, however, Pickett did not achieve immortality. He is buried in an unmarked grave, anonymous in death as he was at birth.

A recent study of vertebrate remains at was the excava-tion of owl pellet sub-fossil remains in Nettle Cave dating from Pleistocene to present sug-gesting Jenolan had a much more diverse small mammal fauna prior to arrival of Europeans. However, Jenolan has preserved the bones of numerous animals from the past. A recent study dating cave sediments suggests Jenolan caves are some of the oldest known, further implying that Jenolan should contain a rich and varied assemblage of vertebrate remains.

This paper aims to present a historical overview of fossil vertebrate finds from these caves (from ~1908). It builds on the work of Robinson (1983), but substantially expands it by including previously unpubli-shed material from the Queensland Museum's collection. The QM collection contains several samples not documented here due to a lack of information regarding their source locality, collector or date of collection. (GJM).2014.2391 PRICE, Gilbert J.

Journal, No. 86 (March 2012) : 7-14. 5 photos, 2 figs, 27 refs.Tenison Woods found mammal bones in Blanche Cave, in 1857; megafauna bones were first discovered in late 19thC; the very significant Victoria (Fossil) Cave deposit was found in 1969 and subsequent work led to World Heritage listing in 1994. Naracoorte is now known to have multiple, contempo-raneous deposits, enabling comparisons to be made between sites. Young sites have become a focus of recent research. Cave structure can profoundly effect the nature of any accumu-lated fossil assemblage. Small mammals, often collected by owls, provide an excellent resource for assessing faunal change over time. Describes on-going research at Blanche and other caves and its importance for future management. (GJM).2014.2393 Australia / Australie

Through quarrying in March 1942, an infilled cave was exposed that provided the first assemblage of Pleistocene megafauna from a cave in Tasmania. The fea-ture became known as Scotchtown Cave. It re-cently re-emerged as a site of interest because of the discovery of the same type of giant kan-


garoo remains at Mount Cripps between 2000 and 2005 by members of the Savage River Caving Club. (Author, GJM).2014.2394

To protect caves for future gene-rations is essential. The perspective is unveiled with the help of the Danish philosopher and theologian K.E. Løgstrup. His ethical demand to caving would probably sound like this: The


cave delivers itself unto you; you hold its very existence in your hands, boots and the course fabric of your clothes. The responsibility is dual: to take care of the cave with minimal im-pact caving and to take care of fellow cavers. Caving ethics will always be an environmental ethics. (TF).2014.2439 THORSEN, Rolf (2009) : Gabriel Scott og naturetikkNorsk Grotteblad, no 52 (Juni 2009) : 12.In his book "Alkejegeren" from 1933, the famous Norwegian author Gabriel Scott des-cribes a cave on the island Flekkerøi. In the past the cave was used by local fishermen as a shelter for overnight stays. The cave consists of two chambers, devided by a rock half-wall. You could stand in both chambers; though the "living room" was reckoned as the cosiest one, while "the kitchen" had a fireplace. "Alkejege-ren" is a book about nature and culture. Scott was very engaged in this topic. The book was the first to discuss nature ethics in Norway. Scott describes how the caves were used by natives and destroyed by mining and thought-less use. A tragic sign that has met many caves in our time. (Author, TF).2014.2440 THORSEN, Rolf (2009) : Grafittifjerning i TrollkjerkaNorsk Grotteblad, no 53 (Desember 2009) : 28. Photos.Some time ago the author and some others decided to walk through the Trollkjerka cave. When they arrived at the entrance, they found the cave filled with people, having a Pre-Christmas party. Deeper into the cave they discovered some tagging - the initials of recent visitors to the cave. They knew it wasn't done by the party they had met, because they we-ren't yet being that deep into the cave. Having received some good advice from S. E. Lau-ritzen, they returned some days later to remove the tagging. Using ace-tone, brushes and wa-ter, the painting easily disappeared. (TF).2014.2441 VIANELLO, Sergio (2014) : Pulizia

These values can be destroyed by construc-tion works, souvenir hunters, vandalism and/or pure carelessness. There are several reasons for conserving Norwegian caves:1. Caves contain many unique geological formations.2. Caves contain unique information about the development of climate, flora, fauna, glaciers etc. through the ages, in-formation that can't be found anywhere else.3. Caves, with complete darkness and low supply of food and energy, can host very specialized ecosystems. 4. Some caves contain rare archaeological findings.5. The pure existence of caves, their site and extent, can tell a lot about the climate in previous ages.

Ulverstone, Tas. : 140-144. 2 figs, 4 refs.The past decade has seen a series of events which have presented serious challenges for the tourism industry. At the same time the retail sector and DIY business have emerged as direct competitors to tourism as alternate re-creational pursuits. Emerging patterns suggest links between some of these factors previously considered independent, patterns that suggest we may be experiencing a broader social shift in attitudes towards leisure time and the tradi-tional concept of the place of tourism within


the broader recreational framework. These changes present a serious challenge to the tou-rism industry. Operators of show caves must confront this challenge..

Ulverstone, Tas. : 7-14. 6 refs.Human interest in caves started in prehistory for very practical reasons. Later this interest arose from other reasons; e.g. in Roman times, people were attracted by the description of the "Dog's Cave" near Naples, Italy, because of the peculiar release of carbon dioxide close to the floor which killed small animals, while people were not affected. In the Middle Age, in Postojna Cave, Slovenia, visitors left their si-


gnatures in a passage now known as “Passage of Ancient Names”. If a show cave is defined as a cave where a fee is paid to visit it, then the oldest is Vilenica Cave in Slovenia.

[abstract only].Cave and karst areas have been important cultural sites throughout human history and prehistory. The interpretation of cultural values of karst has often been seen as secondary to geological or other scientific values. At Je-nolan Caves there was traditionally limited interpretation and little or no available in-formation regarding the long association of Aboriginal tribal groups with the local area. The past 18 months has seen the development of a collaboration between the Jenolan Caves Reserve Trust and the Gundungurra Tribal Council which has led to the development of a self-guided cave tour and surface walk both available as smart-phone apps.

Artificial caves serve a variety of purposes: tourism/recreation/education, landscape/aes-thetic, conservation, spiritual/religious, perso-nal/professional. Generic-type artificial caves are contrasted with facsimile-type which pre-sent greater challenges. Lascaux II in France and Altamira II in Spain are rare examples of the latter, replicating iconic prehistoric art sites closed because of damage to the art. Outlines history of Lascaux from discovery in 1940; discovery of ‘la maladie verte' in 1963 lead to closure and building of the replica opened in 1983. The art is powerful and reproductions are convincing. A nearby museum houses re-productions of the remaining 75% of decorated panels..

Map, 10 photos, 6 refs.The Pink Terraces is a series of large rimstone dams that created an impressive sequence of tiered ponds several metres wide and tens of metres in length in Marakoopa Cave. Years ago the rimstone barriers were chopped to release the water. In 1980s the breaches were refilled with concrete to restore the pools. Despite this the pools were seen to dry out in summer; to maintain them water was diverted and stored to enable the pools to be kept full. Unfortunately this water introduced sediment which discoloured the flowstone. Limestone tablets placed along the watercourse for 12 months showed erosion was occurring. As a result the diversion of water was discontinued and the holding tank removed (GJM).2014.2559 FABBRICATORE, Alessio (2014) : Grotta GiganteAlpi Giulie, anno 108, n. 1/2014 : 14-20.Relazione sull'andamento della grotta turisti-ca nel 2013 e sulla varie iniziative collegate.

In the case of the cave's microclimatic environment, it aims, firstly, to control rise in (CO2) levels above a threshold, and secondly, to keep evaporation rates low so that cave drying is minimised. Reduced ventilation combined with CO2 from visitor respiration can lead to elevated CO2 levels in the cave. The CO2 combines with moisture in the cave to form carbonic acid that corrodes calcite features. This damage is essentially irreversible. High ventilation rates during cool external conditions can lead to cave drying… (GJM).2014.2565 GREBEUDE, Richard (2014) : De la vraie fausse spéléo.

photos, 59 footnotes.From late 1800s, farmers at Mole Creek, Tasmania conducted nature tourism from their homes. Families such as the Parsonses, Scotts, Martins and Byards offered cave tourism experiences as a cottage industry, otherwise engaging in farming and other forms of work. While not operated by a Mole Creek farmer, King Solomons Cave was a similar example of family-based private cave entrepreneurship. King Solomons, Marakoopa, Baldocks and Scotts caves offered rustic, idiosyncratic experiences with home-style hospitality. All four were lit by acetylene gas. Ultimately, the family cave trade was unsustainable. The government's purchase of King Solomons and Marakoopa in 1920 and 1921 respectively and the introduction of electric light brought the era to a close.

The focus of the proposed develop-ment was karst — a limestone deposit known as the Marble Cliffs. Its principal defender was Hobart photographer and conservationist, John Watt Beattie, who wanted a Gordon River National Park. He was the most important figure in 19th and early 20th century Tasma-nian tourism and an early champion of its karst and caves. This was recognised in 1918 when Beattie campaigned for protection of Hastings Caves and he was appointed to a Caves Advi-sory Board to assist the government take over the King Solomons and Marakoopa tourist caves.

It maintains part time operation, mainly in summer. Over the years, the business has led by example in minimal impact caving and safety standards in the unforgiving environment of wild Tasmanian caves. The incapacity of Tasmania's tourism marketing machine to fully embrace boutique and regional tourism products, as well as political conflict in the local community over conservation issues, have caused difficulties. The limited commercial success of the bu-siness is primarily due to difficulties inherent in its regional location and Tasmania's tourism marketing structure and culture..

[abstract only].Fossil bones are often found in caves, where a constant environment and undisturbed sedi-ments can result in exceptional preservation. Most cave fossils are of Pleistocene age since bones older than this usually disintegrate. Extinct animals first known from caves include the massive marsupial Diprotodon, the marsu-pial ‘lion' Thylacoleo, and the northern Cave Bear. Some tourist caves have capitalized on

their fossil faunas by promoting scientific research and showcasing the results in inter-pretive centres and publications. This provides visitors with new excitement, education and a deeper understanding of the caves' history..

Ob-ject of the program was to provide landowners in Mole Ck area with native forest overlying karst the opportunity to either sell the land to the Tas. Govt so it could be added to the


public reserve system or to be remunerated for placing a conservation covenant on the land. The Tas. Land Conservancy was contracted by Dept of Environment Water Heritage & the Arts to implement the program. A technical panel identified and allocated a priority to karst areas; a guidance group assisted with imple-menting the program. The program added 376 ha of karst to the reserve system and protected a further 201 ha with conservation covenants.

Scrubby Creek Cave is a peren-nial outflow cave that resurges from a small limestone bluff and enters the lower section of Scrubby Creek. Due to supersaturation there are extensive tufa terraces in the creek. In 2011 cavers were given the opportunity to purchase the freehold property containing the cave. Nicholas White, a director of Rimstone Coope-rative, spearheaded the plan to acquire the land to secure its important karst values. Numerous donations and loans, mainly by cavers, have made purchase of the 42 ha property possible. It will be managed as a cave and karst conser-vancy.

(2008) : Management issues in a Tasmanian tourist cave: Potential microclimatic impacts of cave modificationsJournal of Environmental Management, Vol. 87, No. 3 : 474-483.Caves often require physical modification to allow visitor access. May have effects such as introduction of structures; transport of mud, dust, nutrients; installation of lights and ex-halation of water vapour and carbon dioxide. Indirect effects include alteration of micro-climate through modifications to ventilation

and presence of visitors leading to changes in temp., humidity, CO2. Changes to caves to aid access can adversely effect internal micro-climates and change environment affecting decorations, cave art and cave fauna. Cave temps are neither static nor constant. Degree of variation depends largely on structure and physical characteristics of cave..

[abs-tract only].Vatnshellir (‘Water Cave') in Snæfellsnes, Iceland, is a 205 m long lava cave/tube on three levels. The lower part is on two levels and in a surprisingly good condition. It is accessible through a skylight in the downfall basin of Vatnshellir. This part of the cave has been named Undirheimar (Underworld). The middle level is 12-20 m under the surface and about 100 m long. In Dec. 2009 a platform was built over the entrance funnel leading into Undirheimar. In May 2010 an 8 m high spiral staircase was put up, leading into the 100 m long middle floor, opened to the public one month later, as ‘the first 20 vertical m of the route to the centre of the earth' (Jules Verne placed the start of the journey in this vicinity in his 1864 novel, Journey to the Centre of the Earth).

2 photos.ISCA draws members from 34 countries on six continents. Apart from being concerned about conservation of caves, members' efforts at cave presentation need to be financially viable to be a success. Once a cave is discovered it is susceptible to damage by vandals and even by cavers and scientists; its proper development and use as a show cave can be highly protec-tive. However perhaps the worst thing that can happen then is for the show cave operation to fail, which could leave the cave open to uncon-trolled abuse. A well-managed show cave is the most effective way of educating the pu-blic as to the importance of conserving caves.

Journal, No. 92 (September 2013) : 37-38. 2 photos.Stresses the need for show cave management to pay attention to the visitor, the environment and effective economic management. A show cave is the business and must be successful and must be able to withstand a period of not being successful. If a show cave operation fails the cave may become degraded and even van-dalised. Inflation can have a serious impact on the economics of show cave operation. Admis-sion prices should not remain unchanged for more than two years.

The Jenolan Karst Conservation Reserve is located in local government area of Oberon in the Blue Mountains, NSW. It has an area of 2422 ha, which includes a complex system of limestone caves, natural landscape and various elements of built heritage. The Reserve is significant as the first public reserve set aside in NSW for the protection of a natural re-source (the caves). Using absolute techniques of measurement, Jenolan has been found to be the oldest cave system in the world, and it is the most visited cave system in Australia. The Reserve is part of the National and World Heritage Listing for the Greater Blue Moun-tains. This CMP has two volumes: Vol. 2 is the heritage Inventory Forms.

Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlConservation issues at Jenolan have driven scientific work in two ways. Firstly challen-ging poor management and inappropriate de-velopment led to preparation of the 1988 Plan of Management. This included some scientific research during the preparation of the PoM and setting up of a Scientific Advisory Committee.

The other driver of scientific work is the preparation of development applications for works at Jenolan. An example is geotechnical studies carried out in 1991 by Coffey Partners International Pty Ltd as part of a development proposal. What is revealed in the various plans of management, consultants' reports and the like is that scientific knowledge of Jenolan is still very limited.

The present article contains the chapter on caves and caving in the pilot report, as well as the comments on this chapter submitted by the Norwegian Speleological Society (NGF). The pilot report suggests the possibility of making caving a main tourist attraction - not something to be only part of a more general tourism product. NGF, however, expresses doubts as to the economic viability of projects with caving as the only attraction.

Photos.In any caving expedition two considerations are uppermost: Personal safety and respect for the cave. But as a guide for beginners it is your duty to give them a fine ramble and an exqui-site experience. Those setting out on their first cave trip may have different motivations. As a guide you should have some idea of what each participant expects. When planning, account should of course also be taken of age, physi-cal form, outdoor experience and personality. Caves are vulnerable, and a bunch of eager beginners may not be as aware of the necessity of considerate traffic as an experienced guide. (TF).2014.2606

The cave continues along the stream for more than a kilometre and has excited cavers for the last 50 years. There are a number of related caves on Scrubby Creek Property and the neighbouring properties. The caving community has worked with the owners to control access because of the caving difficulties and in doing so deve-loped a very strong conservation ethic for what is a very beautiful and complex cave. Cavers learned that the property was for sale in 2011 and quick action was needed to acquire it.

The Environ-mental Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999 is a very valuable piece of federal legislation though unfortunately only relating to biologi-cal conservation. An attempt to give powers under this Act back to the states was defeated by the Senate in Oct. 2014. Cavers need to decide what is nationally important in relation to karst and to have such sites federally reco-gnised. There is a karst area in Qld on Cape York Peninsula where cave bats are threatened by proposed limestone mine but the federal go-vernment will not act. Cavers need to be alert to threats to karst.

Waitomo Caves, NZ : 226. [abstract only].Calcite speleothems have become a signifi-cant component of research into past environ-ments, especially climate research. A particular strength of speleothems is their unique ability to be accurately dated over a long period by either U/Th or U/Pb dating techniques. Stalag-mites are also useful as they contain a range of climatic and environmental proxies such as oxygen and carbon isotopes, trace cations and organic compounds. How can such scientific sampling be managed and what restraints need to be placed? Do we want or need the science? Speleologists and cave managers cannot ignore the pressures for samples and need to unders-tand the valid requirements of the science whilst balancing the need for good cave mana-gement… (GJM).2014.2611

(GM).2014.2679 GIBSON, David (2014) : How Earth-Current Antennas Really WorkCave Radio and Electronics Group, Vol. 88 (December 2014) : 13 - 14.With cave radio equipment, there has been a trend away from the use of induction loop antennas to the use of so-called earth-current antennas, i.e. long wires grounded at both ends. Both the HeyPhone and Nicola system use this type of antenna. However, the popular explanation for how this antenna works is fal-lacious. The fact that the popular explanation is wrong is important because, if we do not understand how the antenna works, it is dif-ficult to know the best way to use it, nor how to design a better one. David Gibson outlines a more useful model - that of the Grounded Horizontal Electric Dipole (Also see CREG forum). (JVD).2014.2680 GIBSON, David (2014) : Using Dispersion to Measure Ground Conductivity


Cave Radio and Electronics Group, Vol. 85 (March 2014) : 7 - 8, 19.Several methods of remotely measuring ground conductivity are known, which depend on measuring the amplitude and phase of a received signal, relative to its transmitter. All of these methods require the separate transmis-sion of a phase reference signal, with attendant difficulties. David Gibson proposes that by transmitting a suitably constructed signal, a phase measurement may be made without the need for a separate reference. This is achieved by making use of the phenomenon of disper-sion, in which the phase velocity of a wave depends on its frequency. A related technique that makes relative measurements of signal amplitude is also described.

Raising the Dead in some ways gives an up-to-date account of the sport of cave diving, which has now expanded into the technology of re-breathers. It also gives a well-chronicled ac-count of Shaw's life as one of the main players in pushing the boundaries of this technology. His cave diving career is inexorably linked to his career as a commercial pilot instructor and the lives of other cave divers, particularly his good friend Don Shirley. It is well researched, well written and action packed to the last.

The gravity me-thod works when buried objects have different masses, which are caused by the object having a greater or lesser density than the surroun-ding material. Generally, granitic rocks have higher density compared to sedimentary rocks. Gravity survey was conducted in two different geological settings which are Lenggong, Perak (Granite) and Kaki Bukit, Perlis (Sedimentary) to study the difference of Bouguer anomaly.

Police chief Sønderland emphasized that the entire appara-tus depends on the activities of the volunteers and: “… it is not during operations that one trains and lays plans. This must be done in between. In the daily efforts the basis is laid for increased individual and cooperative com-petence, making the community better equip-ped to meet extraordinary challenges.” (TF).2014.2725 AARSTAD, Hans Øivind (2007) : Statusrap-port om NGRTs HeyPhonesNorsk Grotteblad, no 48 (Mai 2007) : 42.

it. But in small passages there is danger that even a small stream or a small water pond will make the personnel cold in no time in a rescue operation.

Hanne Høyås guided two people from Holland in Satisfaction Cave (tourist guiding on behalf of Beiarn municipality). The goal was to start at the upper entrance and to depart trough the lower. One of the participants could not get out of the lower entrance, due to a feeling of claustrophobia. Because of stress and energy loss on their way up again, he was not able to climb up a pitch that is about four m high. Hanne went of the cave to get help. With the use of local resources, they got him out of the cave. The cooperation with police was good. (TF).2014.2772 LIMAGNE, Rémy (2014) : Jura : gouffre de la Balme d'Epy.

People from the SSF, the Swedish police, fjällräddningen and the Alpine fjällräddningen


participated. The main conclusion is that the exercise largely went much better than the exercise two years ago in Sotbäcksgrottan. Stretcher transport went very smoothly, it was very good radio discipline and key people had a good view of the situation. It's very ins-tructive to be part of a team that transports a stretcher for a long time. (TF).2014.2779 PAVANELLO, Aurelio (2014) : Interventi del Soccorso Speleologico nel 2013Speleologia.

This book, written by Ronny Arnesen, consists of 260 pages divided into 17 chapters concerning aspects of rescue diving (not in caves), and one chapter about surface rescue in lakes/rivers with ice. The book is for rescue divers. But, in addition to facts about technicalities, he deals a lot with principles that also can be used by any rescue service, like NGRT or Red Cross. Since Ronny is a professional rescue diver, he has described a lot of self-experienced rescue sto-ries. These stories are interesting and exciting to read for nearly everybody.

NGF was there observing, and three instructors from Wales had been brought in. At the same occa-sion formal cooperation with the Norwegian Cave Rescue Team was agreed.

Photos, surveys.In 2008 a huge and complex vertical cave system was discovered behind two extremely narrow passages in Burfjellet. The cave will probably draw attention in the coming years and may be visited by foreign cavers. The sys-tem requires advanced skills and knowledge. A rescue operation will take several days.The new system lies between Brattligrotta and Edvardheimgrotta. In October 2008 the Response Team (from the National Cave Rescue Service) entered the cave to prepare themselves in case of an accident. They took photographs and made maps of possible belaying points and narrow passages that may be extended. They also tested the use of Heyphones. The night was spent in Storligrot-ta.

As they didn´t return at the agreed time, he got scared, went out of the cave and called the police. The Norwegian Cave Rescue Team was called, and a massive rescue opera-tion was organized, involving experienced ca-vers as well as professionals from Red Cross, BARG, HRS and the Police. The cave is a vast, complex system, containing dangerous places. Meanwhile, the missing persons had come out, luckily unharmed, and the operation was cancelled.

8. May, 2012: Emergency call to the Police - a 60 year old woman is stuck in a cave in Tromsdalen, Verdal. Rescue teams from the fire department, Red Cross and ambulance service are striving to get the woman loose. The passage is very narrow, and the woman is getting cold. The Norwegian Caving Rescue Organization is contacted, and 3 local cavers prepare to step in. At 16:50 they get the mes-sage: the woman had come free. The episode shows that self rescuing, rescuing by own team and precautions against hypothermia is essen-tial.

But after some mending which made it more bulky, NGRT wanted to buy anotherReact stretcher from England, because they have one already, and are well satisfied with the model. The chosen stretcher was delivered by Jopling Access And Rescue Equipment. (TF).2014.2797 VOKAC, Marek (2005) : Redning av PlutoNorsk Grotteblad, no 44 (Mai 2005) : 13-17.

The climbing started at the place where she was said to have fallen. The fissure was 80 cm at the top, quickly narrowing to 50 cm. Pluto was discovered at 50 m depth. The ascent took 1 hour 20 minutes, bypassing the most difficult belay points the climbers had ever been exposed to.

The device was placed in a watertight tube and the antennae stretched out about 5 m and placed in the water. Another sta-tion was set up at the outlet about 600 m away, but with no difference in height. Quality was good. A third station was placed on the surface straight above the air chamber. It connected poorly with the outlet station, but with the station in the air chamber the connection was crystal clear. (TF).2014.2804 WOLFRAM, Gottfried (2014) : Intervento di Primo soccorso.

A two-dimensional classification scale is suggested, the first can be climbing techniques based on rising levels of technical skills: 1. No climbing technique required. 2. Must be able to hold on to a rope and free climb steep passages (2-20 m long) secured by a rope. 3. Must be able to climb a ladder, down and up (secured by a rope). 4. Must manage normal rappelling. 5. Must be able to normal ascent/descent on the rope (if the pitch is too high (> 10-12 m) or too complex to use a ladder). 6. Must be comfortable with normal rope ascent/descent technique and be able to pass a rebelay in a pitch. The second dimension can be the length of the trip (in the cave), classified by letters.

The Norway meeting began with surveying in Tjoarvekrajgge. Two acci-dents happened. The first one was a fall down a canyon wall. The caver was able to walk out by herself. The second incident was a caver who fell about 4 m. The rope was belayed around a boulder, which loosened. She became wounded, also internal wounds, but together with the other cavers she managed to get out of the cave. An ambulance transported her to the hospital in Bodø. The meeting continued in Beiarn municipality.

AARSTAD, Hans Øivind (2009) : Disto A3 omskapt til DistoXNorsk Grotteblad, no 52 (Juni 2009) : 3.With the use of a Disto A3 and a printed circuit board bought from Beat Heeb in Switzerland, Hans Øivind Aarstad from the Norwegian Speleological Society had assembled the new instrument for cave-surveying, called DistoX. The main problem was how to accomplish such small-scale engineering, but with steady hands and a strong magnifying glass in the right eye, he managed to create it (he is very good at it!). The instrument can be bought through NGF, each one provided with a serial number, starting with NGF1. DistoX gives cavers possibilities to create cave maps with a much higher degree of accuracy, than with normal, handheld instruments.

He partly succeeded, but still recommend regular-ly calibration of DistoX. Links to websites on this issue. (TF).2014.2983

BOSSE, Michael; ZLOT, Robert (2013) : Ef-ficient mobile mapping of Jenolan Caves using a handheld 3D LiDAR SystemThe science of Jenolan Caves: What do we know? Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlTechnological advances have enabled an increase in both the quantity and quality of acquired data for cave surveying ; but have come with a significant increase in equipment cost, and have not addressed the efficiency of the surveying process. We introduce a hand-held mobile mapping solution called Zebe-dee, which is capable of efficiently producing high-resolution, large-scale 3D maps of caves in the time it takes to walk, climb or crawl through them. Due to its light weight, small size and ease of use, Zebedee can be carried for extended periods in nearly any environ-ment its operator can reach. System consists of a 2D LiDAR scanner and inertial sensor mounted on a spring… (Author, GJM).2014.2984 COOPER, Ian; MAYNARD, Philip (2013) : Systematic cave survey as an exploration tool, and as a baseline for scientific studiesThe science of Jenolan Caves: What do we know? Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlSurvey and mapping of the cave systems has co-evolved with the exploration of the caves: exploration has led to the survey and map-ping of caves, and survey and mapping has


driven exploration. This paper will provide a historical context and modern examples of survey efforts at Jenolan providing a resource for research into the physical processes, and for research into anthropogenic modification of those processes. The co-evolution of ex-ploration and survey is exemplified by mul-tiple episodes of discovery at Jenolan Caves. A recent example within Wiburds Lake cave will be detailed. Cave survey is essential as an input to and check of geology and speleogene-sis studies.

Pro-ject's aims are to: produce a suitably detailed map of Exit Cave system; record and docu-ment important cave features and establish in-cave tracks for navigation and protection of sensitive areas. A grant has been obtained from Wildcare for the purchase of surveying gear, stationery and track marking equipment totalling $1600. Also, a document outlining standards and methodologies for mapping and surveying, and a list of priority areas and tasks is currently being drafted.

Figure.The article takes a closer look on which PDA and software is suitable for cave surveying in combination with DistoX. The choice of PDA depends on which operative system you want to use, which again depends on which cave survey software you want to use. The chosen equipment which is tested in the cave, is the Recon TDS and PocketTopo. The rugged Re-con with a good battery solution is well suited for use in caves. PocketTopo is easy to use, and with the opportunity to do drawings on the screen and measure unlimited side shots from

each station, this is probably the best cave sur-veying software today. (Author, TF).2014.2987 DAY, Anthony (2012) : UIS grader for grotte-kartleggingNorsk Grotteblad, no 58 (Juni 2012) : 43-45. Tables.At the 15th International Congress of Speleo-logy, the Survey and Mapping Working Group of the International Union of Speleology (UIS) Informatics Commission discussed the sys-tem of UIS survey grades. A system of grades for describing the expected accuracy of cave maps is desirable. The systems of British Cave Research Association (BCRA) and Australian Speleological Federation (ASF) were eva-luated, and it was decided that the ASF grades were most suitable as the basis for a UIS grading system. The final version of the UIS grades was ratified in August 2010. This article presents a Norwegian translation of the UIS grades together with some comments on their use.

Figure.We experience that DistoXen measure an error in certain compass directions. Based on exten-sive testing of three DistoX's in 2010-2012, we found that the maximum error and compass heading at maximum error changed over time (more or less no difference right after a calibra-tion). The error was methodical. We developed formulas that corrected it. We don't know why we have this error. One theory is that Norway is too close to the North Pole. We will now test the new prototype Beat Heeb. It is based on the Disto X310, which is more shock resistant than Disto A3. (TF).2014.2989 FINNESAND, Torstein (2013) : Test av proto-typen til DistoX2Norsk Grotteblad, no 61 (Desember 2013) : 13. Tables.A prototype of the card Beat Heeb wants to


have installed in the X310 was tested in the summer and autumn 2013. We found a com-pass error, as we also did in our DISTOX's, but the error seems to be more systematic. The error de-pends on both the compass direction and roll. It is assumes that Norway's close location to the magnetic pole is the main error source.

Figure.In January 2014, the Norwegian Speleological Society bought cards from David Heeb, Disto X310's, LiPo batteries and USB ports and mounted 12 DistoX2, for cavers in Norway and Sweden. It's important to check the com-pass readings before and after a survey trip.

The distance readings are constantly transferred to Cave Sniper via Bluetooth. The other readings are also saved in Cave Sniper's memory. Cave Sniper is calibrated when it is manufactured and does not require any further calibration. Cave Sniper measures the azimuth accurately in any position (upside down as well). The Cave Sniper provides tilt accuracy of approx. ± 1 degree and compass accuracy of ± 1,5 with the tilt in the ± 60 degrees range. When the inclination is higher, the error mar-gin increases slightly.

Abstracts of presented papers : 15 p.http://linneansocietynsw.org.au/symposia/Je-nolan%20Caves/Jenolan.htmlJenolan Caves Historical & Preservation So-ciety researchers and surveyors worked to-gether to place names on maps being produced by Jenolan Caves Survey Project. Sources for cave and feature names were guidebooks, newspaper articles, tourist publications, post-cards and photographs. Contributions also from oral history supplied by guiding staff. From 1838 to present, guides have striven to acquaint visitors with the 'exotic' cave environ-ment, resulting in a tradition of giving features familiar names. To the informed, names of caves and formations can take on a hierogly-


phic character that can guide you through the history of the caves..

Photos, tables, surveys.Lists of Norway's longest and deepest caves.The lists are compiled from recent correspon-dence and data abstracted from the compiler's Norwegian Cave Index and Bibliography which was started in 1963 with the aim of cataloguing as many Norwegian caves and as much related literature as possible. Copies of most of the publications listed in the references are held by the compiler. This time a new list has been incorporated for Norway's highest caves particularly those over 1000 m.a.sl.

David was in the area in 1972 when Øvre & Nedre Gaulstadgrotta, and a resur-gence cave and sink at the base of a waterfall on a tributary stream [Jensbekken] were noted, and again in July 1992 when the 16m shaft in Øvre Gaulstadgrotta was descended.

PIERRE, David (2013) : Huler i Snåsa, Nord-TrøndelagNorsk Grotteblad, no 61 (Desember 2013) : 35-37. Photo. .Compiled from the NCIB and a recent visit. Schøning described a cave near Undershaug,in his diaries in the 1770's. The 11m long cave, 200m asl, is also known as Musegrotta after a priest who hid in the cave in 1718 during Swe-dish war. Other caves, in Ådalen, are known as Mannhø(o)let. One, not found, has references dating from 1845. There are descriptions of a 40m resurgent stream cave named after an old

man who hid his valuables there. A dog ente-ring the cave is said to have emerged at Hun-den in Overhalden, 20 miles away. The other a short daylight resurgence cave is illustrated. The area was visited in1970 and 1979 by Da-vid St Pierre and in 2013 with Trond Rian and Øystein Nytrø. (TF).2014.3042 ST.

capes, development of caves, caving as a hobby and a profession are described - both from a scientific and a more personal point of view. The scientific facts are supplemented with photos and other illustrations, making this impressive book a "must have" for cave ex-plorers.

In order to reduce this in the future, a template has been designed to allow the editor to easily complete the proceedings, as well as the required HTML file for the Proceedings CD-ROM. Using the template, the addition of each paper to the Proceedings takes ~10 minutes and the HTML document ~2 mins. This is achieved by using word macros that perform 90%+ of the work to generate each of these documents. This paper describes the use of the template and how it will greatly reduce the time spent editing proceedings in the future.

The project, in cooperation with NGF, takes a close look at ArcGIS from ESRI concerning gathering, storing, analysis, mana-ging and presentation of cave related data. The project includes a multi user database based on ArcSDE and sql-server, and web solutions based on ArcGIS Server and ArcIMS. The pro-ject builds the database based on the Norwe-gian SOSI-Standard. Wide ranges of cave data both from digital and analogue formats are imported, and a 3D terrain model is made, including caves covering Bonådalen.

The compass we use to survey caves gives a bearing relative to magnetic north, (i.e. the direction of the magnetic north pole). Norwegian maps in the 1:50 000 series shows north as grid north. And last but not least we have true north, which is the direction to the North Pole. True north and grid north is invariable, whereas magnetic north changes from place to place and varies in time. The question that arises is whether, and if so, how to calibrate the compass readings.
