Biology and Evolution of the Mexican Cavefish features contributions by leading researchers in a comprehensive, unique work that examines a number of distinct areas of biology—evolution, development, ecology, and behavior—using the Mexican cavefish as a powerful model system to further understanding of basic biological processes such as eye degeneration, hearing, craniofacial development, sleep, and metabolic function. These fish are currently being used to better understand a number of issues related to human health, including age-related blindness, sleep, obesity, mood-related disorders, and aging. The recent sequencing of the cavefish genome broadens the interest of this system to groups working with diverse biological systems, and has helped researchers identify genes that regulate sleep, eye degeneration, and metabolic function. Mexican cavefish are particularly powerful for the study of biological processes because these fish evolved independently in twenty-nine caves in the Sierra de el Abra Region of Northeast Mexico. These fish have dramatic adaptations to the cave environment, and this can be used to identify genes involved in disease-related traits. This scholarly text will be of interest to researchers and students throughout diverse areas of biology and ecology. It includes photographs of animals and behavior in laboratory and natural settings that will also increase interest and accessibility to non-experts. Includes a mixture of images and illustrations such as the geographical distribution of cave pools and the developmental biology of the nervous system Features a companion site with geographical maps Fills a notable gap in the literature on a topic of broad interest to the scientific community Presents the recent sequencing of the cavefish genome as a groundbreaking development for researchers working with diverse biological systems

This is the first comprehensive source of information about Mexican fossils to be published in English. The book offers updated information in the fields of stratigraphy, sedimentology, tectonics, paleobiogeography, paleoclimatology and evolution. Included is an extensive bibliography of almost 1000 references related to the central topic, a tribute to two centuries of research.

Major porosity-modifying processes operating in the marine diagenetic realm are (1) cementation in shallow warm waters, (2) dolomitization accompanied by minor porosity enhancement in deep waters below the aragonite and calcite lysoclines, and (3) dolomitization associated with organic degradation during early burial. In shallow, normal marine environments, porosity is lost through abiotic and microbially mediated cementation. Such cementation is most abundant in shelf-margin reefs, high-energy intertidal zones, and isolated hardgrounds. Abiotic and microbial cementation in reefs—in combination with bioerosion and internal sedimentation—can totally destroy high initial reef framework porosities. Although intertidal and hardground cements tend to be vertically and laterally restricted, these zones can act as permeability barriers in reservoirs. Deep marine slope and basin environments can experience significant porosity modification. Aragonite cementation on the upper slope extends to 60m depth at present. During the Paleozoic and Mesozoic eras, carbonate mud mounds developed on upper shelf slopes and distal ramps. Microbial processes in these mounds contributed to both early cementation and dissolution. Many such mounds formed in conjunction with hydrothermal and cold petroleum vents on the seafloor; some of these mud mounds are significant reservoirs. Where the thermocline and carbonate lysoclines impinge on steep carbonate platform margins that front oceanic basins, dissolution of aragonite and/or calcite, precipitation of radiaxial calcite cement, and dolomitization can occur. Kohout thermal convection and mixing-zone-induced seawater circulation are the most likely hydrologic pumps driving large volumes of marine water through steep platform margins. At relatively shallow depths in the sediment/rock column, decomposition of organic matter mediated by sulfate-reducing bacteria can promote dissolution of aragonite and Mg-calcite, calcite cementation, and massive dolomitization.
