Patos Lagoon estuary and adjacent marine coastal biodiversity long-term data [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2022 Estuaries are among the most productive aquatic ecosystems and provide important ecological and economic services in coastal areas. However, estuarine systems have been threatened worldwide by natural and anthropogenic impacts acting on local, regional ...

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

Morphological changes in a macro-tidal estuary during extreme flooding events
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 River discharge is a controlling factor in estuarine morphological changes; estuarine topography can be significantly altered even by only one flooding event. However, the mechanism of morphological changes in mountain-stream macro-tidal estuaries during

Tidal currents and mixing in the Lake Maracaibo estuarine system
Scientia Marina, 2001 The Lake Maracaibo estuarine system is a cooscillating coupled ocean-lake system connected through a partially mixed estuary. In this paper we examine the low frequency movements (w < 0.1 cycles/day) in the different water bodies within this system.

Ecological Functions of Polychaetes Along Estuarine Gradients
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Function in ecology can be understood as the role that each component plays in the surrounding environment. It can be studied through the functional traits of organisms and depends on variations of abundance in time and space. Nevertheless, traits should
