| caves and corridors: Archaeological and Visual Sources of Meditation in the Ancient Monasteries of Kuča Angela Howard, Giuseppe Vignato, 2014-11-10 In Archaeological and Visual Sources of Meditation in the Ancient Monasteries of Kuča, Angela F. Howard and Giuseppe Vignato use diverse methodological approaches from archaeology, art history and religious studies to reconstruct monastic life and practices in the rock monasteries on the northern Silk Route (ca. 200-650). Analysis of the caves’ function, meditation manuals, and the cave murals highlights the centrality of meditation, a fundamental duty of Kuča monastics. This interdisciplinary study utilizes hitherto unpublished line drawings, maps, and photographs to reconstruct and interpret the architecture and décor of Kuča caves, thus revealing the close links between the spiritual and the physical, between doctrinal teaching and practice and the lay-out and décor of the monasteries. |
| caves and corridors: Karst Geohazards Barry F. Beck, 2018-12-19 Geologists and geographers study how to develop how and where karst develops and how sinkholes form, but engineers must use this information to develop karst terrane. Over the past ten years, these multidisciplinary conferences on the applied aspects of karst hydrogeology and engineering have been successful in bringing together engineers, geologists, other scientists and government regulators who must safely establish human infrastructure on karst terrane whilst protecting the environment. The essences of these conferences has always been communciation between geologists and engineers with an emplasis on practical applications and case studies. This text contains the proceedings of the fifth conference on karst geohazards. It presents 65 papers that cover topics such as: groundwater contamination through sinkholes and the karst surface; stormwater drainage and flooding problems; and foundation considerations and improvements in karst. |

| caves and corridors: Sacred Darkness Holley Moyes, 2012-04-15 Caves have been used in various ways across human society, but despite the persistence within popular culture of the iconic caveman, deep caves were never used primarily as habitation sites for early humans. Rather, in both ancient and contemporary contexts, caves have served primarily as ritual spaces. In Sacred Darkness, contributors use archaeological evidence as well as ethnographic studies of modern ritual practices to envision the cave as place of spiritual and ideological power that emerges as a potent venue for ritual practice. Covering the ritual use of caves in Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, Mesoamerica, and the US Southwest and Eastern woodlands, this book brings together case studies by prominent scholars whose research spans from the Paleolithic period to the present day. These contributions demonstrate that cave sites are as fruitful as surface contexts in promoting the understanding of both ancient and modern religious beliefs and practices. This state-of-the-art survey of ritual cave use will be one of the most valuable resources for understanding the role of caves in studies of religion, sacred landscape, or cosmology and a must-read for any archaeologist interested in caves. |

| caves and corridors: Environmental Protection and Disaster Risks (EnviroRisks 2024) Nina Dobrinkova, Stefka Fidanova, 2024-11-15 This book is a comprehensive collection of extended contributions from the 3rd International Conference on Environmental Protection and Disaster Risks and the 12th Annual CMDR COE Conference on Crisis Management and Disaster Response held in the period June 4–6, 2024, in Sofia, Bulgaria, as a hybrid participation event. Environmental protection and disaster risk topics are challenging fields, that scientific world is trying to address. Earthquakes, floods, fires, droughts, blizzards, dust storms, natural releases of toxic gases and liquids, diseases, and other environmental variations affect hundreds of millions of people each year. Many disaster events are triggered by human activities. Dealing with these problems requires a multidisciplinary scientific approach. Actions in these directions are taken more and more in the recent years by political bodies, NGOs, and scientific groups trying to find sustainable solutions for the future generations. Every point of view matters when it comes to our global home—The Planet Earth. This book presents recent advances in the topics: disaster management, natural hazards, risk reduction, and building resilience; climate change challenges and security implications; resilience and business continuity management; high-performance computing, modeling and simulations, GIS for environmental monitoring and artificial intelligence. The book is focused on important large-scale applications like environmental and climate modeling, computational optimizations and algorithms for specific hazard situations analyses. |
| caves and corridors: Cave Life Forms Yves Earhart, AI, 2025-01-25 Cave Life Forms: Survival, Adaptation, and Ecology in Perpetual Darkness explores the hidden world of subterranean ecosystems, where life thrives without sunlight through astonishing evolutionary ingenuity. The book centers on how species like blind cavefish and translucent olms adapt to perpetual darkness, developing heightened senses, slowed metabolisms, and unique reproductive strategies. It reveals how these ecosystems depend on chemosynthesis—microbes converting minerals into energy—rather than photosynthesis, creating food webs sustained by bat guano, microbial biofilms, and specialized predators. By studying extreme environments like Romania’s Movile Cave, where toxic gases fuel life, the book draws parallels to potential extraterrestrial habitats, bridging ecology and astrobiology. Blending vivid case studies with genomics and isotope analysis, the book progresses from individual adaptations to systemic ecological networks. Early chapters detail sensory trade-offs, such as loss of vision compensated by electroreception, while later sections explore conservation challenges for endemic species threatened by human activity. Unique in its global scope, it highlights lesser-known invertebrates and microbes alongside iconic species, emphasizing how caves model resilience in energy-scarce environments. Accessible yet rigorous, the work connects niche science to broader themes like climate change and biotech innovation, showcasing enzymes from extremophiles used in medical research. This synthesis of biology, geology, and ethics positions caves as vital laboratories for understanding life’s tenacity—and the urgency of protecting Earth’s final frontiers. |

| caves and corridors: Le Corbusier & Pierre Jeanneret - Restoration of the Clarté Building, Geneva Office du patrimoine et des sites, 2016-10-24 The book describes the story of Clarté, Le Corbusier’s first apartment building, continuing the narrative into the 21st century. The steel skeleton building completed in Geneva in 1930/1932 is a prototype of the Moderne style and a precursor of the Unité d’Habitation. The building was neglected for many decades and not listed as a historic building until the 1990s. In 2007 the external envelope was repaired as the first step, followed by refurbishment of the interior, in which building preservation requirements were taken into account in an exemplary manner. The building log book by the architects and structural engineers is illustrated with numerous new and historic drawings and photographs, and has been supplemented with an account of the building’s history. The renovated building is presented in large photographs. |
| caves and corridors: Dry Cave Systems Yves Earhart, AI, 2025-01-25 Dry Cave Systems: Life and Geology in Moisture-Scarce Environments explores the hidden worlds of Earth’s arid subterranean realms, challenging the myth of caves as lifeless voids. The book’s central theme reveals how life and geology intertwine in water-starved environments, showcasing dry caves as dynamic ecosystems where specialized organisms and mineral formations defy extreme conditions. By bridging ecology, geology, and climatology, it reframes these caves as vital laboratories for studying resilience, adaptation, and climate change impacts. The book uncovers astonishing adaptations, like bacteria surviving on trace humidity and blind pseudoscorpions navigating perpetual darkness. It details how microbial activity shapes cave geology—accelerating mineral weathering once thought purely abiotic—and how stalagmite layers preserve millennia of climate data. Unlike traditional speleology texts, this work emphasizes arid caves’ global diversity, from Nevada’s Lehman Caves to Iran’s Qeshm Island, while linking subsurface processes to surface ecosystems. Structured in three sections, it progresses from cave formation and extremophile biology to broader connections with climate and conservation. Unique for its interdisciplinary approach, the book merges vivid storytelling with scientific rigor, using analogies like “reverse weathering” to explain mineral deposition. It highlights practical applications, such as soil microbes aiding drought-resistant agriculture, and underscores conservation urgency for these fragile habitats. By framing dry caves as mirrors of past climates and hubs of innovation, it offers profound insights into life’s tenacity—a timely lesson for an era of environmental change. |
