Surface-Water Quality of the Gulf of Papagayo, North Pacific, Costa Rica [PDF]
Water (Switzerland), 2021 In recent years, the northwestern part of the North Pacific areas of Costa Rica has undergone rapid socioeconomic development. This situation, combined with the scarce available information about the water quality of the Gulf of Papagayo, became the starting point to carry out a study to investigate the spatiotemporal variations of physicochemical and ...

Hydrographic variability in the Gulf of Papagayo, Costa Rica during 2017-2019
Revista de Biología Tropical, 2021 Introduction: The Gulf of Papagayo (GP) is a site of socioeconomic importance located in the North Pacific of Costa Rica. The ecosystem services of this site represent a benefit in local communities, and its dynamics are influenced by a coastal upwelling system that affects fishing and commercial activity. Objective: The objective of this study was to
