Physical Oceanography of the Southwest Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
FROM ITS LITTORAL margin to the open ocean, the westem South Atlantic (Fig. 1) is marked at all depths by circulation patterns and exchange processes that are centrally important to the region- al marine resources and local economies, and to the global flux of heat and dissolved substances. Among other important characteristics, the Southwest Atlantic (

Intermediate waters in the southwest South Atlantic [PDF]
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.

Marine debris ingestion by albatrosses in the southwest Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
Plastics and other marine debris affect wildlife through entanglement and by ingestion. We assessed the ingestion of marine debris by seven albatross species in the southwest Atlantic by analyzing stomach contents of birds killed in fisheries. Of the 128 specimens examined, including four Diomedea species (n=78) and three Thalassarche species (n=50 ...
