Extended North Atlantic Oscillation and Greenland Blocking Indices 1800–2020 from New Meteorological Reanalysis

Atmosphere, 2022
Based on newly-available meteorological reanalysis, we compile and present extended seasonal series of the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Greenland Blocking indices spanning 1800–2020, which we analyse for evidence of significant trends.

Feasibility of Wave Energy Converters in the Azores Under Climate Change Scenarios

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The wave energy resource along the Azores coast is evaluated for the present (1990–2019) and future (2030–2059) periods using the third-generation wave model WAVEWATCH III, forced by winds and sea-ice cover from the RCP8.5 EC-Earth integration ...

Simultaneous organic aerosol source apportionment at two Antarctic sites reveals large-scale and ecoregion-specific components

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
. Antarctica and the Southern Ocean (SO) are the most pristine areas of the globe and represent ideal places to investigate aerosol–climate interactions in an unperturbed atmosphere.

Putting fishing communities on the map in ICES ecoregions

ICES Journal of Marine Science
This paper highlights the importance of identifying fishing communities for fisheries and ecosystem-based management, which often focuses on fleets and ecological impacts rather than on the communities where fishers live and land their catches. Fishing

Population ecology and juvenile density hotspots of thornback ray (Raja clavata) around the Shetland Islands, Scotland

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 576-589, March 2024.
Abstract Elasmobranchs are facing global decline, and so there is a pressing need for research into their populations to inform effective conservation and management strategies. Little information exists on the population ecology of skate species around the British Isles, presenting an important knowledge gap that this study aimed to reduce.

Restructuring of the ‘Macaronesia’ biogeographic unit: A marine multi-taxon biogeographical approach

Scientific Reports, 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 ...
