Effect of extinction on the high-energy optical response of photonic crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
An analysis of the optical response of photonic crystals in the high-order band energy range is herein presented. High and abruptly fluctuating specular reflectance is predicted for perfect lattices at those energies even in the absence of any photonic ...

Nutrient input from the Colorado River to the northern Gulf of California is not required to maintain a productive pelagic ecosystem

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2015
The high phytoplankton production (PP) of the northern Gulf of California (NGC) supports a rich biodiversity and fisheries with high yields. The NGC is the habitat of the vaquita (Phocoena sinus), the cetacean most at risk of extinction in the world ...

Genetic connectivity of the endangered brown sea cucumber Isostichopus fuscus in the northern Gulf of California revealed by novel microsatellite markers

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2018
Isostichopus fuscus is an economically important sea cucumber that has been highly exploited along its distribution range in the eastern Pacific. The significant population decline is responsible for its listing as endangered in the IUCN Red List ...

Micromollusk families in 2 contrasting seasons in Bahia de los Angeles, Gulf of California, Mexico

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2023
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

Numerical modeling of seasonal and mesoscale hydrography and circulation in the Mexican Central Pacific

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2012
Based on results from a ROMS numerical model, the dynamics of the Mexican Central Pacific was studied during three years (2003–2005). The model reproduces the mean and seasonal variability of sea surface temperature, as well as mesoscale eddies and ...

Genetic diversity and population histories of two species of Phidippus (Araneae: Salticidae) from northwestern Mexico

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2023
The northwestern Mexican Baja California state is an ecologically unique area being the only part of the country with a Mediterranean ecosystem and a high species diversity and endemism for many groups.

The Gulf of California is a source of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2013
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.

Annual and semiannual variations of phytoplankton biomass and production in the central Gulf of California estimated from satellite data

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2013
Surface waters of the Midriff Islands region of the Gulf of California persistently have the lowest temperatures (SST) and the highest nutrient concentrations of all surface waters of the gulf. The purpose of this work was to characterize the annual and

Temperature, salinity, nutrients and chlorophyll a in coastal waters of the Southern California Bight

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2001
The seasonal variability of dissolved inorganic nutrients (phosphates, PO–34; nitrates, NO–3; nitrites, NO–2) and chlorophyll a was studied during five surveys in nearshore waters of the southern region of the Southern California Bight (SCB).

¿Puede hablarse de consenso constructivista en la educación científica? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
In this paper we analyse some of the criticisms that are being made to the «constructivist paradigm» and their implications on the development of the didactic of the sciences as a theoretical body ...
