The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Microbial Diversity of Cave Ecosystems (2010, background): “These formations have pH values averaging <2 (Hose et al. 2000), due in part to the sulfuroxidizing microbes producing sulfuric acid.”
Geomicrobiology of Caves: A Review (2001, background): “Stable isotope techniques can provide information on microbial contribution to mineral formation (Hose et al. 2000) and ecosystem bioenergetics (Sarbu et al. 1996).”
GEOMICROBIOLOGY IN CAVE ENVIRONMENTS: PAST, CURRENT AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES (2007, background): “5) with observable sulfuric acid production (Hose et al., 2000).”
Food web structure and the role of epilithic biofilms in cave streams (2003, background): “While chemoautotrophic pathways can fuel some cave food webs, few caves with significant inputs of chemicals needed by chemoautotrophs are known (e.g., Sarbu et al. 1996, Hose et al. 2000).”
The end of regressive evolution: examining and interpreting the evidence from cave fishes. (2005, background): “Others are chemoautotrophic (Airoldi & Cinelli, 1996; Sarbu, 2000; Sarbu et al., 2000; Hose et al., 2000) thanks to bacteria that produce organic matter by oxidizing sulfur.”
