Winter survival strategies of cave-adapted amphipods in the Ice Caves of Sam’s Point area of Minnewaska State Park Preserve, NY, USA


	Thermal imaging was used to measure temperatures within the cave. In the colder galleries, rock wall temperatures registered at -1.0 °C, while the surrounding air measured 0.4 °C. Notice liquid water was still observed flowing along the cave floor.
