A comparison of genomic diversity and demographic history of the North Atlantic and Southwest Atlantic southern right whales. [PDF]
Mol Ecol, 2023 Abstract Right whales (genus Eubalaena ) were among the first, and most extensively pursued, targets of commercial whaling. However, understanding the impacts of this persecution requires knowledge of the demographic histories of these species prior to exploitation.

Intermediate waters in the southwest South Atlantic [PDF]
Deep Sea Research Part A. Oceanographic Research Papers, 1989 Abstract The density (sigma-theta, σ θ ) interval 27.05–27.20 in the Subantarctic Zone of the northern Drake Passage is characterized by two water types with potential temperatures of 3.7 and 4.8°C, respectively, both with salinity of approximately 34.2.
