SARBU Department of Biological Sciences, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati OH 45221- 0006 USA CRISTIAN LASCU “Emil Racovita” Speleological Institute, Str. Frumoasa 11, 78114 Bucharest ROMANIA Condensation corrosion is the dissolution of carbonate by acidic vapors condensing above the water table. This process is rarely noted and receives little attention in the mainstream cave literature. The oolitic limestone walls in Movile Cave’s upper dry passages are severely altered by a selective corrosion mechanism. Temperature differences between the water in the lower passages and the walls in the upper passages and high concentrations of CO2 in the cave atmosphere create favorable conditions for con- densation corrosion to take place. Carbon and oxygen stable isotope data support the hypothesis that condensation corrosion is the major mechanism currently affecting the morphology of Movile Cave’s upper dry level. Condensation corrosion is the dissolution of carbonate by High concentrations of carbon dioxide in the cave atmos- acidic vapors condensing above the water table (Ford & phere favor the production of large quantities of carbonic acid Williams, 1989). This carbonate dissolution process is rarely thus accelerating the process of limestone dissolution (James, noted and receives little attention in the mainstream cave liter- 1994). ature (Jameson, 1991).

Several studies Following the examination of the cave’s morphology, performed in caves developed in soluble rocks (i.e. gypsum), Constantinescu (1989) concluded that the cave has a phreatic attempted to determine the amount of bedrock dissolved by origin. He also pointed out that the upper level of the cave is condensation corrosion (Cigna & Forti, 1986; Calaforra et al., extremely dry as a consequence of the lack of water infiltration 1993). from the surface and considered that the lack of speleothems is The mechanism proposed for condensation corrosion is the effect of the dry climate in the region.

  • BULGARIAN REVIVAL INTELLIGENTSIA Natural
    BULGARIAN REVIVAL INTELLIGENTSIA Natural Philosophy System of Dr. Petar Beron Petar Beron was born at year 1800 in the town Kotel, “a miniature of Nuremberg”, in a rich family of handcrafts and merchants. In Kotel he received his primary education at the cell school of Stoiko Vladislavov and Raino Popovich. He went further to Bucharest where he entered the school of Greek educator Konstantin Vardalach. The latter, a famous for his time pedagogue and encyclopedist, had influenced a lot for the formation of Beron as scientist and philosopher. In 1824 Beron is compelled to leave Bucharest, because he participated in a “Greek plot”, and goes to Brashov, another Rumanian town, where he compiled “The Fish Primer”. This book was fundamental for the Reformation in Bulgaria and an achievement for the young scholar. In 1825 Beron enrolled as a student in Heidelberg University, Germany, where he proceeded philosophy until two years later when he transferred to Munich to study medicine. On the 9 July 1831, after successfully defending a doctoral dissertation, Beron was promoted Doctor in Medicine. Dissertation was in Latin and concerned an operation technique in Obstetrics and Gynecology. The young physician worked in Bucharest and Craiova, but after several years of general practice he quit his job and started merchandise. After fifteen years he made a fortune and went to Paris where he lived as a renter. Here he started a real scientific career. His scope was to entail all the human knowledge by that time and to make a natural philosophy evaluation by creating a new “Panepisteme”. His encyclopedic skills were remarkable.

Furthermore, the future prices look bleak. The cost of raw materials soared 27%, and that’ll make ‘em even more pricey on the next go-around!

Be- yond a wide swale, that yesterday was gold and green but now is glistening wintry white, rises a small eminence, where a dissolving view of trees and buildings is momentarily formed, then hidden, then brought out again, mirage-like, in the most curi- ous and dreamlike unreality, yet always with singular beauty. Gray is the only color, a soft, purplish, silvery gray; and the silhou- ette is the only style of drawing. By their outlines I guess that the wavering slender spike amid the glistening haze is the church steeple—that squarish blur the belfry of the court-house—the next irregular smudge a certain collection of house-roofs; but all seem as foreign and unsubstantial as shadows, so quaintly are they now clouded, now lightly revealed by the swirling, satiny snowflakes that fill the air with particle luminous in themselves yet obscuring the landscape.

  • What's Wrong with White Leds
    The Blind Leading the Blind: What’s Wrong with White LEDs A Technical Analysis of White LEDs and Why They Suck for Caving, At Least For Now By C. Taylor The marketing hype surrounding white LEDs just does not hold up to scrutiny. While white LEDs may suit the miserably small caves that we have in abundance in New England, if you want to avoid groping in the dark and going around in circles, not to mention falling down poorly lit drops, forget about white LED lamps. Go out and buy a real headlamp that can produce 50 lumens of light such as a Petzl Duo with an FR500 halogen bulb. And if you insist on using ANY lamp that takes four or fewer AA cells, use only Energizer e2 or similar lithium / iron sulfide batteries, which can handle the load, not conventional alkaline AAs, which fare poorly in most headlamps of adequate brightness for caving. I first knew something was amiss with white LEDs in July of 2004, when James Keary, Adam Dobson, Manos Pothos and I spent a long weekend caving in big passages in West Virginia. Everyone used a white LED headlamp except for me. I used an old Justrite electric headlamp, and unlike my buddies, I could actually see where I was going. James was even using the latest Nova white LED headlamp from Speleo Technics, which seemed to make no difference whatsoever. We came down from an upper level passage in Buckeye Creek and walked a few feet around some breakdown in the main stream passage.
