The Estero de Punta Banda, B.C., Mexico as a link in the "Pacific Flyway": Abundance of shorebirds
Thirteen shorebird species and 5683 individuals were recorded at Estero Punta Banda from October 1988 to April 1989 in three soft-bottom habitats bordering the northern tip of the sand bar (open beach; terminal beach; mud-flats) and a semi-protected ...

The Gulf of California is a source of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere
Water exchange between the Gulf of California and the Pacific Ocean has a significant vertical component (VCWE). Surface (0–200 m) gulf water flows out into the Pacific Ocean and deep (200–600 m) water flows into the gulf.

Micromollusk families in 2 contrasting seasons in Bahia de los Angeles, Gulf of California, Mexico
Marine mollusks provide important ecosystem services. They create habitats for benthic organisms, filter water, biodeposit organic carbon in the seafloor, and serve as food sources for other organisms. Studies of mollusk diversity require time-consuming

Effect of the oxygen minimum zone on the second chlorophyll maximum
Field data collected during June 2005 were used to determine the relationship between the second fluorescence maximum (FMax), the top of the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ), and physical processes (coastal currents, eddies, and upwelling) in the northern ...

Mitochondrial variability of dolphinfish Coryphaena hippurus populations in the Pacific Ocean
Patterns of genetic structure among marine populations involve a variety of dispersal mechanisms and spatial scales. Pelagic species, such as the dolphinfish Coryphaena hippurus, epitomize the open and continuous nature of the marine environment due to ...
