White-nose syndrome (WNS) is a disease that has been devastating to populations of hibernating bats in the eastern United States and has spread westward. It was first reported in the winter of 2006– 2007 near Albany, New York. Since then, it has spread westward to western Kentucky and Tennessee, and in 2010, the WNS-related fungus (Geomyces destructans) was documented in western Oklahoma. Given the proximity of G. destructans to El Malpais National Monument and its effects on hibernating bats, the monument contacted the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to conduct an assessment for the presence of this fungus or related disease on bats. During the late winter and early spring of 2011, the USGS Arid Lands Field Station initiated mist-netting efforts at El Malpais National Monument and on adjacent lands belonging to Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and U.S. Forest Service (FS). Field efforts were conducted during spring and summer but were concentrated in the early spring, when the presence of the fungus or its effects would be detectable compared to warmer and later periods of the spring and summer. However, irregular wind speeds, as well as cold temperatures and snow, likely had a negative effect on net captures and success during the spring. Nonetheless, during this assessment, 421 bats belonging to 8 species were documented at El Malpais National Monument and adjacent lands. None of these captures showed evidence for the presence of G. destructans or white-nose syndrome, but it is possible that the subtle signs of some infections may not have been observed.

Cave organisms are the ‘monsters’ of the underground world and studying them invariably raises interesting questions about the ways evolution has equipped them to survive in permanent darkness and low-energy environments. Undertaking ecological studies in caves and other subterranean habitats is not only challenging because they are difficult to access, but also because the domain is so different from what we know from the surface, with no plants at the base of food chains and with a nearly constant microclimate year-round. The research presented here answers key questions such as how a constant environment can produce the enormous biodiversity seen below ground, what adaptations and peculiarities allow subterranean organisms to thrive, and how they are affected by the constraints of their environment. This book is divided into six main parts, which address: the habitats of cave animals; their complex diversity; the environmental factors that support that diversity; individual case studies of cave ecosystems; and of the conservation challenges they face; all of which culminate in proposals for future research directions. Given its breadth of coverage, it offers an essential reference guide for graduate students and established researchers alike.

Focusing specifically on the management of karst environments, this volume draws together the world’s leading karst experts to provide a vital source for the study and management of this unique physical setting. Although karst landscapes cover 12% of the Earth’s terrain and provide 25% of the world’s drinking water, the resource management of karst environments has only previously received indirect attention. Through a comprehensive approach, Karst Management focuses on engineering issues associated with surface karst such as quarries, dams, and agriculture, subsurface topics such as the management of groundwater, show caves, cave biota, and geo-archaeology projects. Chapters that focus on karst as an integrated system look at IUCN World Heritage sites, national parks, policy and regulation, measuring systematic disturbance, information management, and public environmental education. The text incorporates the most up-to-date research from leading karst scientists. This volume provides important perspectives for university students, educators, geoengineers, resource managers, and planners who are interested in or work with this unique physical landscape.
