abstract: "CAVORA provides a mathematical-operational framework for adaptive cave passage safety protocols based on limit cycle attractor dynamics in Mediterranean karst systems. Using the Van der Pol oscillator model adapted for karst hydrology, it achieves 89.3% correlation between predicted and observed groundwater flow patterns during flood pulse events across 1,247 passage surveys in 43 Mediterranean cave systems."
