RESEARCH EXPERIENCE Principal Investigator (2012-2016). Biological Inventory and Mapping of Four Earth Cracks at Wupatki National Monument, Arizona. Our objectives are to: (i) collect map data and develop high resolution maps; (ii) conduct summer and winter surveys for bats; (iii) sample for cave dwelling arthropods using numerous techniques; and, (iv) document other wildlife use.

Principal Investigator (2012). Relict Species and Invasion Ecology of Caves, Rapa Nui (Easter Island). Our objectives were to (i) resample the deep zones of 4 of the largest caves on Rapa Nui to search for troglomorphic species, (ii) collect data to characterize the deep zone habitat at all sampling locations, and (iii) revise existing cave habitat maps.

Principal Investigator (2010-2012). Habitat Characterization and Climate Change Impacts of Bat Hibernacula, Parashant National Monument. The objectives were to: (i) survey all known caves within or immediately adjacent to the monument boundary for hibernating bats; (ii) identify and census bats occurring within each cave; (iii) develop models to identify habitat correlates of bat hibernacula; (iv) develop models to investigate potential effects of global climate chance on bat hibernacula, and; (v) collect soil samples to ultimately characterize the soil microbial communities to have information necessary for early detection of the fungus that causes White Nose Syndrome.

Principal Investigator (2010-2011). Troglobite Inventory of Wet Caves, Parashant National Monument. Using a suite of sampling methods, we intensively inventoried cave-adapted organisms in two wets caves on Parashant National Monument.

Jut Wynne v08.14 14 Co-Investigator (2010). Biological Inventory of Vertical Pits, Haleakala National Park, Maui, Hawaii. Worked with the Bishop Museum to develop a safety plan for vertical pit work. Due to permitting issues and end of fiscal year constraints, fieldwork was cancelled.

Co-Investigator (2009-2013). Characterization of Pit Craters, Big Island, Hawaii. Assisting in the deployment and maintenance of temperature data loggers within pit craters along the Great Crack, Southwest Rift, Hawaii-Volcanoes National Park. Our objectives are to: (i) characterize thermal behavior of these features; (ii) determine whether the data permits us to discern pit craters with verses without cave entrances; and, (iii) relate the data collected and inferences gained into better understanding pit craters discovered in the Tharsis Region on Mars. Responsibilities include development of project safety plan, serving as medical and technical personnel and assisting with instrument placement and data extraction.

Co-Investigator (2009-2010). Caves as a Record of Climate Change and Biodiversity. Conducted arthropod surveys, baited for arthropods and deployed numerous temperature and relative humidity data loggers in a cave in Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument. Objectives of this pilot study are to: (i) collect temperature and relative humidity data for one year; (ii) model the data collected to investigate whether there is a temperature signal associated with a past climate regime; (iii) characterize cave-adapted arthropod using the study cave; and, (iv) make predictions whether these troglomorphs are at risk of extinction due to current global climate change.

Principal Investigator (2009). Feasibility Study of Umi’s Caverns, Volcano National Park, Hawaii. Assisted National Park Service personnel in determining whether it would be possible to gain vertical access to an alpine cave.

Principal Investigator (2008-2009). Natural and Cultural History of Rapa Nui Caves. Our team sampled the biology and archaeology of caves on the Roiho Flow on Easter Island. Our objectives were to: (i) assess the degree of invasive/ non-native species colonization; (ii) assess whether caves contained new species and thus may serve as refugia within a highly invaded landscape; and (iii) conduct a baseline archaeological survey to identify the extent of cave use by the ancient and contemporary Rapa Nui.

Project Manager/Co-PI (2008-2011). Phase 2: Earth-Mars Cave Detection Project. This project was executed and administered through NASA-Ames/ SETI in conjunction with NASA-Goddard, USGS and University of Tennessee-Knoxville. Caves at two Mars-analog sites (Atacama Desert, Chile and Mojave Desert, CA) were investigated and several areas on the Martian surface were evaluated for caves and cave-bearing geology.

Principal Investigator (2007-present). Ecological Inventories of Caves on Grand Canyon-Parashant and El Malpais National Monuments. Responsibilities include field sampling for arthropods, bats and other wildlife use at all caves studied, analyzing data, developing models of cave biodiversity and biogeography, as well as drafting and submitting reports and manuscripts for publication. To date, three new genera and 15 new species of arthropods have been identified.

Principal Investigator (2008). Baseline Ecological Inventory of Caves on Rapa Nui, Chile. This project was executed through Northern Arizona University and USGS. As part of a baseline effort, we sampled arthropods and mapped one cave and opportunistically collected arthropods at another cave on Easter Island. We collected 70 specimens across 13 taxonomic orders through this effort.

Jut Wynne v08.14 15 Instructor/ Contributing Scientist (2008). NASA Spaceward Bound Expedition, Mojave Desert, California. Primary purpose of this expedition was to assist in teaching high school science teachers how scientists search for life on other planets. We collected ground-based thermal images of caves over a 24 hour period and collected temperature data to investigate differences in sensor placement in cave entrances.

Project Leader (2005-06). A Strategy to Identify Instrumentation and Mission Requirements for Finding Subterranean Areas to Investigate for Evidence of Martian Life – Pilot Study. Funded by NASA Exobiology program, this project will use a combination of ground-based measurements and remote sensing of terrestrial caves to develop a strategy to identify instrumentation and mission requirements to search for evidence of Martian cave life. Results included demonstrating the viability of cave detection using thermal infrared and the most compelling evidence for cave-like features on Mars.

Instructor/ Contributing Scientist (2007). NASA Spaceward Bound Expedition, Mojave Desert, California. We collected a combination of ground-based temperature data and thermal images, and used a hot air balloon platform (with thermal imaging camera) in a predictive capacity to search for cave entrances.

Contributing Scientist (2006). NASA Spaceward Bound Expedition, Atacama Desert, Chile. Primary objective was to collect baseline temperature data, conduct reconnaissance and obtain information related to the Atacama Desert caves.

Co-Principal Investigator (2005-2006). Baseline Ecological Inventories of Known Caves on the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument. Sampled 24 caves within this monument for biological resources, mapped all features, and identified caves for testing and refining rapid ecological inventory protocols of caves.

Co-Principal Investigator (2005). Wildlife Use of Select Caves on the Arizona Strip. Ten caves were surveyed on BLM-Arizona Strip District lands to obtain a baseline knowledge of wildlife use.

Principal Investigator (2004-2007). Cathedral Caves Speleological Preserve. Coordinated biological research activities at two privately owned caves in northern Arizona. Research to date includes conducting baseline biological inventory including trapping and collecting of invertebrates, and documentation of a seasonal Townsend’s big-eared bat colony, tiger salamanders, and identification of at least two new species of cave dwelling arthropods.

Principal Investigator (2001). An ecological inventory of Actun Chapat: A pilot study of Faunal Resources, west-central Belize. Department of Archaeology, Ministry of Tourism and the Environment, Belmopan, Belize, Central America. Conducted an inventory of invertebrates and vertebrates within Chapat cave. Bats were captured, invertebrates collected, and reptiles and amphibians identified.
