New records of Erichsonella attenuata (Isopoda: Valvifera: Idoteidae)in the Gulf of Mexico
Erichsonella attenuata is an isopod species distributed in the Western Atlantic region of the Gulf of Mexico and is associated with sea-grass beds composed of Ruppia maritima, Halodule wrightii and Thalassia testudinum. In the Gulf of Mexico, this isopod

Dispersion of subsurface lagrangian drifters in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico
The dispersion of subsurface Lagrangian floats by eddies was observed directly in DeSoto Canyon, located in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico. Key elements of dispersion include the capture and release of floats by variations in eddy structure and ...

Star Formation in the Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
We present an optical/infrared study of the dense molecular cloud, L935, dubbed "The Gulf of Mexico", which separates the North America and the Pelican nebulae, and we demonstrate that this area is a very active star forming region.

Climate change exacerbates hurricane flood hazards along US Atlantic and Gulf Coasts in spatially varying patterns [PDF]
One of the most destructive natural hazards, tropical cyclone (TC)–induced coastal flooding, will worsen under climate change. Here we conduct climatology–hydrodynamic modeling to quantify the effects of sea level rise (SLR) and TC climatology change ...

The production and persistence of ΣRONO2 in the Mexico City plume [PDF]
Alkyl and multifunctional nitrates (RONO2, ΣANs) have been observed to be a significant fraction of NOy in a number of different chemical regimes. Their formation is an important free radical chain termination step ending production of ozone and possibly

The holoplanktonic mollusks (Pteropoda and Pterotrachoidea) in surface waters of the Campeche Canyon (southern Gulf of Mexico) during a winter storm (“Nortes”) season [PDF]
The holoplanktonic mollusks (Mollusca, Pteropoda and Pterotrachoidea) are independent and key groups of organisms in any marine ecosystem due to the role they play in the carbon and energy transfer along the marine trophic webs.
