Karstological field and laboratory equipment

Purpose of equipment
Raingauges Onset are used for the measurement of precipitation in Postojna and Vrh Korena on Javorniki Mountains, and of dripwater in the Postojna Cave. An automatic measurement station for the monitoring of annual oscillations of temperature, air humidity, and parameters of dripwater is used for the assessment of the impact of tourist use on the cave environment in the entrance part of the Postojna Cave. Gealog S with sondes for measurement of water level, temperature, and specific electrical conductivity is used for continuous monitoring of dripwater in the Postojna Cave. The same parameters are measured with the Levelogger sondes in karst caves with underground flow of the Pivka, Unica, and Reka Rivers. Additional optical parts for the existing microscope Nikon Eclipse 600 are used for the microscopy and study of biological and microbiological materials in underground habitats.
