The Azores Countercurrent [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 1993
Abstract New light is shed on Worthington's concept of the North Atlantic circulation, postulating the existence of two anticyclonic gyres. This concept, which seems to have been laid to rest in the last decade, has now been reinforced by the results of a simple linear Sverdrup circulation model yielding a band of westward transport all across the ...

Mascarene High Variability Shapes the Demography of a Wind‐Reliant Marine Top Predator

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Subtropical anticyclones are semi‐permanent atmospheric high‐pressure systems located in all five major ocean basins and are associated with large‐scale wind and weather patterns. They shape the physical environments of many species, yet their impacts on wildlife remain unexplored. We combined population and climate analyses to investigate the

Immunomodulatory Effect of a Cysteine-Rich Secretory Protein from an Entomopathogenic Nematode with Sterol-Binding Activity

open access: yesToxins
The Steinernema carpocapsae nematode is known to release several excretory/secretory products (ESPs) in its venom upon contact and during the parasitic infection process of insect hosts.

Dynamics and evolution of the Azores Triple Junction and its relation to pre-existing major tectonic structures

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Triple junctions, where three tectonic plates meet, play a critical role in geodynamics. The Azores Triple Junction is critical in the study of triple junctions, challenging traditional models of triple junction stability.

When a Surface Becomes a Network: SEM Reveals Hidden Scaling Laws and a Percolation-like Transition in Thin Films

open access: yesSurfaces
The morphology of solid surfaces encodes fundamental information about the physical mechanisms that govern their formation. Here, we reinterpret scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs of oxide thin films as two-dimensional self-affine morphology ...

Exploring the Catrina, an autochthonous cattle breed of the Azores, for a comparative analysis of methane emissions with Holstein-Friesian dairy cows

open access: yesFrontiers in Animal Science
IntroductionThe struggle against climate change in agriculture requires an increased understanding of greenhouse gas emissions, mainly from cattle farming. Through precise and accessible methods to monitor the methane (CH4) emissions of these animals, it
