Estimating common dolphin bycatch in the pole-and-line tuna fishery in the Azores
PeerJ, 2018 Small-scale artisanal fisheries can have a significant negative impact in cetacean populations. Cetacean bycatch has been documented in the pole-and-line tuna fishery in the Azores with common dolphins being the species more frequently taken.

Synergies between Asteroseismology and Exoplanetary Science [PDF]
, 2017 Over the past decade asteroseismology has become a powerful method to systematically characterize host stars and dynamical architectures of exoplanet systems. In this contribution I review current key synergies between asteroseismology and exoplanetary science such as the precise determination of planet radii and ages, the measurement of orbital ...

Influence of the Azores high on sea level pressure and wind, and on precipitation, in the Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean [PDF]
, 1966 ENGLISH: Intensification of the Azores high pressure cell in mid-year, with concomitant air flow from the Caribbean into the Pacific, is shown to be responsible for a secondary minimum of precipitation observed along the tropical Pacific coast of the ...

Time‐Varying Interactions Between US–China Political Relation, Flight Frequency, and Inbound Tourism
Economics &Politics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates the dynamics among US–China political relations, flight frequency, and inbound tourism through the utilization of a time‐varying parameter vector autoregression model. As political relations warm, there is a notable uptick in flight frequency between the two nations.

Noise Sources in Photometry and Radial Velocities [PDF]
, 2017 The quest for Earth-like, extrasolar planets (exoplanets), especially those located inside the habitable zone of their host stars, requires techniques sensitive enough to detect the faint signals produced by those planets. The radial velocity (RV) and photometric transit methods are the most widely used and also the most efficient methods for detecting

Experiential-Informed Data Reconstruction for Fishery Sustainability and Policies in the Azores [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Fishery analysis is critical in maintaining the long-term sustainability of species and the livelihoods of millions of people who depend on fishing for food and income. The fishing gear, or metier, is a key factor significantly impacting marine habitats, selectively targeting species and fish sizes.

Restructuring of the "Macaronesia" biogeografic unit: a marine multi-taxon biogeographical approach [PDF]
, 2019 The Azores, Madeira, Selvagens, Canary Islands and Cabo Verde are commonly united under the term “Macaronesia”. This study investigates the coherency and validity of Macaronesia as a biogeographic unit using six marine groups with very different ...
