2021
<p>As one of the most productive ecosystems in the world, the Southeastern Pacific Ocean (SPO) coastal zone is economically important to the countries of the region. Dynamically the SPO coastal zone is influenced by the Patagonian Icefields and the large-scale circulation of the open Pacific Ocean, both of which are sensitive to climate ...

Status of Pacific Salmon and Steelhead Escapements in Southeastern Alaska

Fisheries, 1996
Abstract We evaluated the status of Pacific salmon and steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in southeastern Alaska. Of 9,296 spawning aggregates identified in this region, some data were available for 4,009 (43%), and 928 (10%) had sufficient information to analyze for escapement trend. Of those analyzed, 333 (36%) were increasing, 556 (60%) were stable, 37

Ocean color variability in the southern Atlantic and southeastern Pacific

SPIE Proceedings, 2012
The chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl a ) of surface waters is commonly retrieved from space using an empirical polynomial function of the maximum band ratio (MBR), i.e., the maximum ratio of remote sensing reflectance in selected spectral bands in the visible. Recent studies have revealed significant deviations in the relation between MBR and Chl a

A new deep-water Astyris species (Buccinoidea: Columbellidae) from the southeastern Pacific

Zootaxa, 2016
Marine mollusks from northern Chile and from the Región de Atacama in particular have been sparsely documented, and only a few works have reviewed the area (see Araya & Araya, 2015; Labrín et al. 2015; Araya & Valdés 2016). Mollusks from deep water and offshore areas are one of the least known groups and, apart from some classic works from the ...
