Symposium der Internationalen Arbeitsgemeinschaft fiir Cyanophyten- forschung (IAC) iiber «Fragen der Cyanophyten-Systematik» in Kastanienbaum 1966 wurde wiederum beschlossen, die Blaualgenliteratur zu veroffentlichen. Da die erste Zusammenstellung der Literaturzitate aus den J ahren 1960~1963 nicht vollstandig war, wurde sie <lurch eine weitere Anzahl von Arbeiten erganzt. Somit liegen nun zwei Listen vor: Die erste enthalt die erganzten Literaturzitate aus den J ahren 1960-19631), in der zweiten sind Literaturangaben aus den Jahren 1964-1966 zu finden. Natiirlich wird wiederum ein Teil der Veroffentlichungen unberiicksichtigt bleiben. Um aber die Arbeiten <loch so liickenlos wie moglich zu erfassen, gelangten wir diesmal laut Beschluss des 4. Symposiums an eine Reihe von Spezialisten aus ver- schiedene~ Landern mit der Bitte um Mitarbeit. Die daraufhin eingegangenen Bei- trage vorl Dr. Asta ALMESTRAND (Schweden), Prof. Dr. P.

In the reference lists the readers find papers published mainly between 2007 and 2010 in various geophysical journals (including journals edited in Hungary as Acta Geodaetica et Geophysica Hungarica, Geophysical Transactions, Magyar Geofizika, F¨oldtani K¨ozl¨ony,etc.). The major IAGA-related conferences in Hungary between 2007–2010 were as follows: the IAGA XI. Scientific Assembly (Sopron, 2009) as the most remarkable event of geo-science in Hungary, in that year; the VERSIM Workshop (Tihany, 2008), as an other international meeting; Ionosphere and Magnetosphere Seminars (Budapest, 2008; Baja, 2010); Inversion Workshop (Miskolc, 2008); annual meetings of the Association of Hungarian Geophysicists; annual meetings of Young Geologists and Geophysicists. The structure of this report follows more or less the structure of Hungarian activities in frames of IAGA. The numbering of sections (I–V) indicates the number of IAGA divisions, but the individual sections does not follow exactly the structure of IAGA working groups. Instead, each of the sections is divided into several subsections, corresponding to the related Hungarian results. Several scientific results are described in Section V, under the observatory de- scriptions, where activities of two Hungarian geo-electromagnetic observatories: Nagycenk and Tihany are summarized.

  • Water Regime: Physical Features of the Site
    Ramsar Site: 1092 – Baradla Cave System Ramsar Information Sheet May 2014 Additional information Water Regime: 1. Ground waters 1.1. Karstic water As the the Domica-Baradla Cave System is in a karstic region, the major part of the groundwater is stored in the tectonic fissures, fractures and dissolutional cavities of the karstified Triassic limestones and dolomites. The recharge derives from the rainfall infiltrating through the surface, and from meteoric waters flowing into the karst system through sinkholes. 1.2. Confined groundwater In the Domica-Baradla Cave System area confined groundwater occurs only south from Aggtelek, in the 50-100 m thick Pannonian clayey-sandy-pebbly sediments. This sequence is considered more or less impervious because of its clay content, therefore only 5% of the rainfall can infiltrate. A part of the infiltrating water feeds the karst beneath, another part flows laterally towards the springs on the south. Some local springs discharge on the surface of the clayey pebble horizons. 1.3. Unconfined groundwater Unconfined groundwater occurs only in the valleys of major streams, and in the fluvial pebbly sediments of basins. 2. Springs Springs can be best characterised by discharge, which is determined by the geological-morphological build-up of the catchment area, and basically by climatic conditions (rainfall, evaporation, melting). Depending on these conditions, the discharge of a spring may vary between a few l/min and a few thousand l/min. In this area the Jósva spring has the biggest discharge with a minimum of 3900 l/min and a maximum of 450.000 l/min (and 1.200.000 l/min in 1959).

  • Exposure of Workers to Radon Progeny in the Baradla Cave at Aggtelek
    exposure of workers to radon progeny in the baradla cave at aggtelek Z. Dezso Dep. of Environmental Physics, Debrecen University H-4001 Debrecen, POBox 51, Hungary The number of those countries where radiation protection considers not only radiation workers but all employees in general is growing. An Euro conform regulation assumes that at least worker's exposure to radon be assessed and limited to a certain value. This is based on ICRP 65 recommendations [1] in most countries. In the new Hungarian radiation protection regulation [2], in accordance with EU legislation, rules have been adopted also for the protection of workers from radon exposure at work. The limit of exposure for non-radiation workers is expressed in action level and is set to 1000 Bq/m3 yearly mean radon concentration and is in effect from 1st January 2003. In case of 2000 hours/year working time, this corresponds to 3-12 mSv effective dose, depending on the local circumstances. Among others, show caves are explicitly mentioned in the new directive where the exposure of personnel must be monitored because of the likely high radon levels. This is probably because of the extensive radon related research work done in caves in the past 20 years in Hungary [3]. These studies revealed that the mean radon level in Hungarian caves is around 2 kBq/m3. Furthermore, it turned out that the well known show caves of Budapest all have yearly mean radon level much higher than the current action level. Some 10 years ago, radon research in these caves included also the assessment of radiation dose of tour guides and speleotherapy personnel [4].

(2018): Microscopic fungi on ca- davers and skeletons from cave and mine environments. – Czech Mycol. 70(2): 101–121. During long-term studies of microscopic fungi in 80 European caves and mine environments many cadavers and skeletons of animals inhabiting these environments and various animal visitors were found, some of them with visible microfungal growth. Direct isolation, the dilution plate method and various types of isolation media were used. The resulting spectrum of isolated fungi is presented and compared with records about their previous isolation. Compared to former studies focused mainly on bat mycobiota, this paper contributes to a wider knowledge of fungal assemblages colonising various animal bodies in underground environments. The most interesting findings include ascocarps of Acaulium caviariforme found abundant on mam- mals cadavers, while Botryosporium longibrachiatum isolated from frogs, Chaetocladium jonesiae from bats and Penicillium vulpinum from spiders represent the first records of these species from cadavers or skeletons. Key words: European caves, abandoned mines, dead bodies, bones, mammals, frogs, spiders, isopods, micromycetes.

  • Medical/Wellness Tourism Development in the World Heritage Caves of the Aggtelek and Slovak Karst (SKHU/1601/1.1/035) Press Rele
    Medical/Wellness Tourism Development in the World Heritage Caves of the Aggtelek And Slovak Karst (SKHU/1601/1.1/035) Press Release The cross-border project of the Aggtelek National Park Directorate and its partner, the State Nature Conservancy of Slovak Republic was awarded a non-refundable grant of € 1,616,098 from the Interreg V-A Slovakia - Hungary Cooperation Programme. The project was implemented between November 2017 and July 2021. The 30+ km long Baradla-Domica cave system - split between Hungary (22 km) and Slovakia (approx. 8 km) - is the most significant representative of the underground world added to the list of World Heritage Sites as the caves of the Aggtelek karst and the Slovak karst. The aim of the project was to study the therapeutic effects of climate therapy in the Baradla-Domica cave system, to provide objective survey results, to renew the certification of Béke [Peace] Cave in Jósvafő and to develop adequate visitor infrastructure needed for the corresponding services. The connection between the cave climate and the improvement of the health of patients suffering from respiratory illnesses was first examined in the 19th and 20th centuries. Today, this connection is undoubtedly proven and cave therapy, as a part of medical tourism, has now a growing potential in tourism and preservation of health. Cave climate has certain constant features including the relatively constant temperature (annual temperature changes do not exceed 1°C), the purity of cave air (caves are free of dust, pollen and germs - at least the parts completely separated from the surface); the CO2-content and the relative humidity values exceed those measured at the surface.

  • Journal of Cave and Karst Studies
    September 2017 Volume 79, Number 2 JOURNAL OF ISSN 1090-6924 A Publication of the National CAVE AND KARST Speleological Society STUDIES DEDICATED TO THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE, EDUCATION, EXPLORATION, AND CONSERVATION Published By The National Speleological Society http://caves.org/pub/journal Office 6001 Pulaski Pike NW Huntsville, AL 35810 USA Editorial EDITORIAL: CHANGES TO THE JOURNAL OF CAVE AND KARST STUDIES Scott A. Engel Production Editor In 2011, the Journal of Cave and Karst Studies began transitioning to an electronic distribution process. While not all readership agreed with this change, it was done, in part, to address budgetary limitations within the National Speleologi- cal Society. But more importantly, it was done to conform with to similar changes being done by peer publications and across the publication industry. As predicted, in the six years since we made this transition, the movement away from print distribution and toward electronic only distribution has continued to expand and evolve across the scientific com- munity and the globe. In that respect, our experiment has been a success, and it is increasingly apparent that a return to full print distribution is unlikely and unnecessary. With that in mind, this issue represents the next evolution of the Journal as we continue to modernize our production process. As you look through this issue, you will find that we have made two major changes to improve the Journal. A brief description of the changes and the reasons behind them are presented below. Publication Schedule By transitioning to a predominantly electronic distribution, we have been able to control and reduce costs incurred by the National Speleological Society to produce and distribute individual issues of the Journal.

  • Development, Management and Economy of Show Caves
    In!. J. SpeleoI.. 29 B (1/4) 2000: I - 27 DEVELOPMENT, MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMY OF SHOW CAVES Arrigo A. CIGNA International Show Caves Association Scientific Advisor to the President Ezio BURRI Dept. of Environmental Sciences University of L'Aquila ABSTRACT The problems concerning the development of show caves are here considered by taking into account different aspects of the problem. A procedure to carry out an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has been established in the last decade and it is now currently applied. Such an assessment starts with a pre-opera- tional phase to obtain sufficient information on the undisturbed status of a cave to be devel- oped into a show cave. Successively a programme for its development is established with the scope to optimise the intervention on the cave at the condition that its basic environmental parameters are not irre- versibly modified. The last phase of the assessment is focussed to assure a feedback through a monitoring network in order to detect any unforeseen difference or anomaly between the pro- ject and the effective situation achieved after the cave development. Some data on some of the most important show caves in the world are reported and a tenta- tive evaluation of the economy in connection with the show caves business is eventually made. Introduction Nearly twenty years ago, two great experts of cave management, Russell and Jeanne Gurnee (1981), wrote: "The successful development and operation of a tourist cave depends on a combination of factors, including 1) Scientific investigation 2) Art 3) Technology 4) Management Scientific study is recommended at the beginning of the first phase in order to deter- mine what hydrologic and geologic factors may have an influence on the develop- 2 Arrigo A.

LAMPENFLORA ALGAE AND METHODS OF GROWTH CONTROL JANEZ MULEC1 AND GORAZD KOSI2 Abstract: Karst caves are unique natural features and habitats where specialized organisms live. Some caves are also important as cultural heritage sites. In recent decades, many caves have experienced intensified tourist visits. To attract visitors, artificial illumination was installed that changed conditions in the caves. As a result, communities of organisms called lampenflora develop in close and remote proximity to lights. These phototrophic organisms are inappropriate from an aesthetic point of view and cause the degradation of colonized substrata, which is a particular problem in caves with prehistoric art. Key factors that allow lampenflora to grow are light and moisture. Illuminated spots in caves can be quickly colonized by algae, some of which have broad tolerances for different substrata. Several phototrophs can survive in caves even at photon flux densities lower than the photosynthetic compensation point. In this paper, the pros and cons of physical, chemical, and biological methods to control phototrophic growth are reviewed and discussed. Experiences in show caves can be helpfulin controlling undesirable algal growth in other environments. INTRODUCTION show no oscillations in light intensity. Dobat (1972) named spots with growing lampenflora ecosystems in formation. Caves have a special place in human history. Early in One of the characteristics of the natural cave environ- prehistory, humans discovered that caves can provide ment is low nutrient input (Simon et al., 2007) that is suitable temporary or permanent shelters.
