Geographic variation of southeastern Pacific intertidal communities [PDF]
We conducted field surveys of rocky intertidal communities at 18 sites distributed between 29°S and 36°S on the coast of central Chile in order to document broad patterns of functional and trophic group abundance and evaluate their association with oceanographic features.

Cutoff low over the southeastern Pacific Ocean: a case study [PDF]
Cutoff lows (COLs) are infrequent events in the tropics that can cause extreme rainfall, flash flooding and landslides in arid areas, such as western South America. In this study, the life cycle of a COL in the southeastern Pacific at the beginning of April 2012 was analysed using the ERA-Interim reanalysis dataset.

Seafloor litter at oceanic islands and seamounts of the southeastern Pacific
Seafloor litter in oceanic islands of the southeastern Pacific Ocean have rarely been described and quantified, mainly due to the associated logistical challenges. In this study, we describe and quantify the different kinds of litter from 60 to 320 m depths in Rapa Nui (RN) and Desventuradas Islands (DI), and evaluated the relationship of this litter ...
