You have been redirected from old network webpage
Dear Colleagues,
As a part of the ongoing work on optimization/upgrading of the Speleogenesis website, the Speleogenesis Network, previously available at http://www.network.speleogenesis.info/, is now merged with the main Speleogenesis website. Most of networking services/options from the old network platform have already migrated to the main address and the new design. Your current page request has been automatically re-directed to this main page. Here you can find most of features of Speleogenesis Network. Some other features still remain within the old platform, and particular links to respective pages are still operational, such as, for instance,
- Speleogenesis Calendar - http://www.network.speleogenesis.info/directory/events/index.php
- HypoKarst Project - http://www.network.speleogenesis.info/directory/projects/hypogene.php
- Atlas of Cave Morphs - http://www.network.speleogenesis.info/directory/atlas/index.php , etc.
These and some other features will migrate to the new platform soon, too. All important old links will be re-directed to new pages, so that the old links will not be broken.
Yours sincerely,
Speleogenesis Team
