North Atlantic ecosystem sensitivity to Holocene shifts in Meridional Overturning Circulation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Rapid changes in North Atlantic climate over the last millennia were driven by coupled sea surface/atmospheric processes and rates of deep water formation.

Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation slowdown cooled the subtropical ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Observations show that the upper 2 km of the subtropical North Atlantic Ocean cooled throughout 2010 and remained cold until at least December 2011. We show that these cold anomalies are partly driven by anomalous air-sea exchange during the cold winters

A Model Analysis of the Behavior of the Mediterranean Water in the North Atlantic

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2007
Abstract The behavior of the Mediterranean Water in the North Atlantic Ocean sector of a global ocean general circulation model is explored, starting from its entry point at the Strait of Gibraltar. The analysis focuses primarily on one experiment in which explicit watermass exchange between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic at the ...

Marine Tourism and Social Responsibility of Destinations: An Analysis for the Formulation of Public Policies

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyses the commitment of marine tourism companies to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and the factors that affect it (economics, pressures from interest groups, barriers, innovative capacity, relationships of the company with its environment and characteristics of the businesses).

Variations in Atlantic surface ocean paleoceanography, 50°-80°N: A time-slice record of the last 30,000 years

open access: yes, 1995
Eight time slices of surface-water paleoceanography were reconstructed from stable isotope and paleotemperature data to evaluate late Quaternary changes in density, current directions, and sea-ice cover in the Nordic Seas and NE Atlantic.

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Dental development in the tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) and the evolution of vertebrate dentitions

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.

Embryonic development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Starfish play essential ecological roles as predators and ecosystem regulators; however, detailed developmental descriptions exist for only a handful of species, none of which are from the Mediterranean Sea. Results In this study, we provide the first full account of the development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata ...

The tropical-subtropical coupling in the Southeast Atlantic from the perspective of the northern Benguela upwelling system.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
In the Benguela upwelling system, the environmental conditions are determined to a large extent by central water masses advected from remote areas onto the shelf.
