Physiological responses of Pocillopora corals to upwelling events in the Eastern Tropical Pacific

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Upwelling events can change the sea water conditions within few hours during several months on a seasonal regimen. These events are predicted to intensify due to climate change, exposing shallow benthic organisms to hypoxia and thermal stress, among ...

Ordo renascendi est crescere posse malis (Rutilius Namatianus I.140): the sack of Rome and the resilience of western Roman aristocracies

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 139-157, May 2025.

A Review of the Status of Sharks, Rays and Chimaeras of Panama to Guide Research and Conservation

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Chondrichthyan fishes (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are a group of high conservation concern globally. Species are impacted by varying threats, although fishing pressure is the primary stressor causing population declines. Panama comprises both Pacific and Caribbean coastlines with a diversity of estuarine and marine habitats supporting small ...

Toward Sustainable Biocultural Ecotourism: An Integrated Spatial Analysis of Cultural and Biodiversity Richness in Colombia

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 194-214, January 2025.
Abstract Ecotourism plays a vital role in both economic development and depending on the scale, it can also aid environmental conservation. Ecotourism planning often considers culture‐based and nature‐based tourism separately, failing to recognize the synergies between them, with the potential to market locations as biocultural destinations.

Serpentinite–Sediment Associations: Provenance Controlled by Competing Extensional–Contractional Tectonic Processes During the Evolution of the Northern Apennines (Eastern Elba Island, Tuscany)

Basin Research, Volume 37, Issue 1, January–February 2025.
ABSTRACT Orogenic wedges juxtapose tectonic units that originated far from each other, and tracing these back to their origin is often difficult. We have studied two contrasting serpentinite–sediment associations of the Alpine‐Apennine orogenic wedge of eastern Elba Island with the help of a detrital zircon study of the sediments and a geochemical ...
