The Gulf of Tehuantepec and adjacent areas: spatial and temporal variation of satellite-derived photosynthetic pigments

Ciencias Marinas, 1997
Photosynthetic pigment concentrations retrieved from data generated from 1978 to 1986 by the sensor Coastal Zane Color Scanner were used to describe the seasonal and interannual variation of phytoplankton biomass of the Gulf of Tehuantepec and adjacent ...

Upwelling increases net primary production of corals and reef-wide gross primary production along the Pacific coast of Costa Rica

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Photosynthetic production is a key ecosystem service provided by tropical coral reefs, but knowledge about the contribution of corals and other reef-associated organisms and the controlling environmental factors is scarce.

Biogeochemical Response to Mesoscale Eddies and Tehuano Wind Events in the Oxygen Minimum Zone off the Gulf of Tehuantepec

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract In the oxygen minimum zone of the eastern tropical North Pacific off the Gulf of Tehuantepec, mesoscale eddies and offshore jets often develop in response to Tehuano wind events. These dynamic features play crucial roles in modulating the vertical distribution of nutrients, dissolved oxygen, biogeochemical cycling, and regional primary ...

Meso‐ and Submesoscale Circulation Origins for Subsurface Oxygen Intrusions Into the Oxygen Deficient Zone of the Eastern Tropical North Pacific

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Subsurface oxygen maxima (SOM) are recurrent but poorly understood features within the eastern tropical North Pacific oxygen deficient zone (ODZ). Here, we analyze a subsurface oxygen maximum (SOM) observed during the SR2114 cruise using in situ biogeochemical and physical measurements, satellite remote sensing, and Lagrangian particle ...

Improvements in the Seasonal Prediction of the Mid‐Summer Drought Based on the North American Multimodel Ensemble

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 45, Issue 6, May 2025.
Although the basic features of the Mid‐Summer Drought (MSD) were not adequately reproduced in the North American Multi‐Model Ensemble forecasts, these forecasts contained the main drivers associated with its interannual variability; after applying a relatively simple Model Output Statistics technique, these drivers resulted in skilful, regional‐scale ...

Interannual Variability of Tropical Cyclone Landfalls in the Eastern North Pacific: Environmental Drivers and Implications

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract Despite its high tropical cyclone (TC) density, the Eastern North Pacific (ENP) basin has received relatively little research attention on landfall variability. This study investigates the climatological seasonal cycle and interannual variability of TC landfalls in the ENP.

Dynamics and Energetics Associated With Two East Pacific Easterly Waves During the OTREC Campaign in August 2019

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract This study investigates the vertical structure and related dynamical and energy conversion processes that aided the development of two east Pacific easterly waves (EWs) during the 2019 OTREC (Organization of Tropical East Pacific Convection) campaign period.
