Storm-wave trends in Mexican waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017 Thirty-year time series of hindcast wave data were analysed for 10 coastal locations along the eastern Mexican coast to obtain information about storm events occurring in the region, with the goal of examining the possible presence of interannual ...

A realistic expectation of sea level rise in the Mexican Caribbean
Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2019 This paper provides a realistic estimation of the sea level rise by 2050 and by 2100 in the Mexican Caribbean, and more specifically in the North–East side of the Yucatan peninsula, in between Cancun and Playa del Carmen, where the most part of the ...

Sea fan corals provide a stable isotope baseline for assessing sewage pollution in the Mexican Caribbean [PDF]
Limnology and Oceanography, 2010 We compared stable nitrogen isotope (d15N) values from the common Caribbean sea fan Gorgonia ventalina, collected from a developed and undeveloped coastline, to test the hypothesis that sewage‐derived nitrogen (N) inputs are detectable and more severe in developed areas along the Mesoamerican barrier reef of Mexico. The Akumal coast was selected as the

Somatic growth rates of immature green turtles Chelonia mydas inhabiting the foraging ground Akumal Bay in the Mexican Caribbean Sea [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2017 Abstract Growth dynamics helps to elucidate demographic aspects, such as age at specific size and size at maturity or first reproduction, which are important for sea turtle management. The Mexican Caribbean Sea is an important feeding ground for green turtles, but demographic data for the turtles are lacking.
