High‐Resolution Variability of the Ocean Carbon Sink

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 38, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Measurements of the surface ocean fugacity of carbon dioxide (fCO2) provide an important constraint on the global ocean carbon sink, yet the gap‐filling products developed so far to cope with the sparse observations are relatively coarse (1° × 1° by 1 month).

Global Climatology of Low‐Level‐Jets: Occurrence, Characteristics, and Meteorological Drivers

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 9, 16 May 2024.
Abstract Low‐level jets (LLJs), vertical profiles with a wind speed maxima in the lowest hundred meters of the troposphere, have multiple impacts in the Earth system, but a global present‐day climatology based on contemporary data does not exist. We use the spatially and temporally complete data set from ERA5 reanalysis to compile a global climatology ...

Two color morphs of the pelagic yellow-bellied sea snake, Pelamis platura, from different locations of Costa Rica: snake venomics, toxicity, and neutralization by antivenom.

open access: yesJournal of Proteomics, 2014
UNLABELLED The yellow-bellied sea snake, Pelamis platura, is the most broadly distributed snake species. Despite being endowed with a highly lethal venom, a proteomic analysis of its toxin composition was unavailable. The venoms of specimens collected in

Small-scale estimation of relative abundance for the coastal spotted dolphins (Stenella attenuata) in Costa Rica: the effect of habitat and seasonality

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2012
The coastal spotted dolphin (Stenella attenuata graffmani) is one of the most common species of dolphin in inshore Pacific waters of Costa Rica. We conducted surveys in protected waters of the Papagayo Gulf, Costa Rica, to determine relative abundance of
