The Patagonian coast of the Argentine Continental Shelf (ACS) extends along a relatively stable continental margin at the intersection of the present Antarctic ice sheet and the relic of the former Patagonian ice sheet. ...

Summary Trace-element data for mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORBs) and ocean island basalts (OIB) are used to formulate chemical systematics for oceanic basalts. The data suggest that the order of trace-element incompatibili...

Benthonic marine species show a wide range of biological reactions to seawater chemical changes through time, from subtle adjustments to extinction. The Early Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE) was recently recognized...

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are crucial for conserving marine biodiversity, and assessing the effectiveness of boundaries in protecting marine species is essential. In the Southwest Atlantic Ocean, four MPAs have been ...

ABSTRACT The Brazil-nut tree (Bertholletia excelsa) is native to the Amazon rainforest, and its fruit production varies naturally with climatic conditions. Our aim was to evaluate the temporal variation in Brazil-nut pro...

The aim of this paper is to investigate an event of simultaneous activity of atmospheric gravity waves (AGW) and meteotsunami recorded on December 1–2, 2013, in the inner continental shelf of Buenos Aires Province, Arg...

Interaction between the South American craton and the oceanic Nazca Plate throughout the Cenozoic gave rise to the Andean orogen and a related assemblage of retroarc foreland basins. This review partly summarizes abundan...

O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar o modelo de previsão numérica do tempo BRAMS (Brazilian Regional Atmospheric Modelling System), a partir da comparação entre os valores preditos e os observados (dados do NCEP/NOAA ...

The ongoing biodiversity disappearance on islands worldwide is alarming. Without an accurate biodiversity assessment, it is impossible to stop the loss of the world’s islands irreplaceable natural heritage. To assess b...

Shield volcanoes are described as low-angle edifices built primarily by the accumulation of successive lava flows. This generic view of shield volcano morphology is based on a limited number of monogenetic shields from I...

AUVs have essential applications in oceanic investigations, environmental characterization, and subsea surveys where accuracy in positioning and stability for navigation is challenging. AUV proposed in the present work a...

The Agujero Azul (Blue Hole) is an oceanic region located on the edge of the Southwestern Atlantic continental shelf that is especially impacted by intense fishing activity. It harbours a high biodiversity, including the...

Episodes of Environmental Change (EECs) were times of accelerated hydrological cycle that punctuated the Early Cretaceous. Uncertainties in the geologic time scales however preclude full understanding of the onset, unfol...

Abstract Shallow S-wave velocity (VS) structures in Tainan City, Taiwan, were characterized using microtremor array data for 18 sites compiled by Huang et al. (Terr Atmos Ocean Sci 35:20, 2024). Theoretical transfer func...

Integrating conceptually similar models of the growth of marine and terrestrial primary producers yielded an estimated global net primary production (NPP) of 104.9 petagrams of carbon per year, with roughly equal contrib...

Particular vertebral morphologies have been reported for coastal and oceanic cetaceans. Dall's porpoise (Phocoenoides dalli ) vertebral column is considered one of the most derived among cetaceans. Total vertebral count ...
