Surface-Water Quality of the Gulf of Papagayo, North Pacific, Costa Rica [PDF]

open access: yesWater (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 ...

Generation and Propagation of Anticyclonic Rings in the Gulf of Papagayo

open access: yesInternational Journal of Remote Sensing, 2004
Lagrangian drifting buoys, local meteorological stations and AVHRR data were used to describe the generation and propagation of anticyclonic rings in the Gulf of Papagayo during the upwelling season in 1996. Some observations were consistent with two generation mechanisms previously proposed: forcing by inertially rotating Papagayo wind jets and ...

Atmospheric Forcing of Cool Subsurface Water Events in Bahía Culebra, Gulf of Papagayo, Costa Rica [PDF]

open access: yesRevista De Biologia Tropical, 2015
<span>Bahía Culebra, localizada en el Golfo de Papagayo, al norte de la costa del Pacífico de Costa Rica, es un área de afloramiento estacional, en donde pueden ocurrir eventos de enfriamiento más intensos, principalmente durante algunas semanas del invierno boreal. Para estudiar estos eventos de enfriamiento extremo, se analizaron datos de nueve

Impact of Upwelling Events on the Sea Water Carbonate Chemistry and Dissolved Oxygen Concentration in the Gulf of Papagayo (Culebra Bay), Costa Rica: Implications for Coral Reefs

open access: yesRevista De Biologia Tropical, 2015
<span>El Golfo de Papagayo, costa Pacífica de Costa Rica, es una de las tres regiones de afloramiento estacional de Mesoamérica. Las características físicas y químicas del agua que aflora no habían sido estudiadas. Durante 29 horas en Abril 2009, se estudiaron la temperatura superficial del mar (TSM), la concentración de oxígeno disuelto ...

Demersal Assemblages of the Continental Shelf and Slope Edge Between the Gulf of Tehuantepec (Mexico) and the Gulf of Papagayo (Costa Rica) [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology - Progress Series, 1991
The structure of demersal assemblages (fish, crustaceans and cephalopods) of the continental shelf and upper slope between the Gulf of Tehuantepec and the Gulf of Papagayo was studied from data obtained in the course of surveys carried out by the RV 'Dr. F.

Conservation Status of Fish and Marine Invertebrate of Rocky Reefs and Sandy Substrates in Two Unprotected Bays of the Papagayo Gulf, Costa Rica [PDF]

open access: yesRevista De Biologia Tropical, 2020
Introduction: North Pacific Costa Rica is generally considered rich in marine habitats and species. However, some areas are subject to fishing pressures that could degrade ecosystems. The Gulf of Papagayo comprises protected and unprotected areas with various degrees of impact.

Satellite Observations of Mesoscale Eddies in the Gulfs of Tehuantepec and Papagayo (Eastern Tropical Pacific)

Deep-Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, 2004
SeaWiFS high-resolution ocean-color images and AVHRR sea-surface temperature were obtained for the period from November 1998 to March 1999. Generation of mesoscale eddies was observed for the region between the Gulf of Tehuantepec and the Gulf of Papagayo (Tropical Pacific Ocean).

Upwelling Off the Gulfs of Panama and Papagayo in the Tropical Pacific During March 1985

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1988
Satellite measurements of sea surface temperatures (SST) were made in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean during March 1985. Unusually persistent upwelling was observed southwest of the Gulf of Panama and Gulf of Papagayo from March 7 to 22. The SST was depressed by 6° to 10°C relative to the surrounding waters.
