Published in 2017 at "Geomorphology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.geomorph.2017.09.019

Abstract: Abstract Karst systems are hierarchically spatially organized three-dimensional (3D) networks of conduits behaving as drains for groundwater flow. Recently, geostatistical approaches proposed to generate karst networks from data and parameters stemming from analogous observed karst… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Zootaxa"

DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5213.5.2

Abstract: A new troglobitic palpigrade from Southeastern Brazil is described based on nine specimens (including males, females and immatures of all stages) collected in an iron ore cave named "Mocororô". The most peculiar trait of Eukoenenia… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "BMC Microbiology"

DOI: 10.1186/s12866-017-1002-x

Abstract: BackgroundBacteria present in cave often survive by modifying their metabolic pathway or other mechanism. Understanding these adopted bacteria and their survival strategy inside the cave is an important aspect of microbial ecology. Present study focuses… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Acta Chiropterologica"

DOI: 10.3161/15081109acc2019.21.2.016

Abstract: Caves are very important roosts for bats. Neotropical countries, like Brazil, harbor both high bat species richness and abundance of underground cavities. The Caatinga drylands in northeastern Brazil are a good example with potentially 100… read more here.
