The Survival Crisis Faced by Coastal Ecosystems In Tropical and Subtropical Areas
In tropical and subtropical coastal areas, there are unique ecosystems in which the land hermit crab plays an important roll. Recent land developments have forced them into a survival crisis, particularly around the Okinawan islands in southern Japan.The islands of Okinawa used to be surrounded by cobalt color reef seas and abundant ecosystems, of ...

Stalagmite water content as a proxy for drip water supply in tropical and subtropical areas [PDF]
Abstract. In this pilot study water was extracted from samples of two Holocene stalagmites from Socotra Island, Yemen, and one Eemian stalagmite from southern continental Yemen. The amount of water extracted per unit mass of stalagmite rock, termed "water yield" hereafter, serves as a measure of its total water content.

Plankton and particle biomass size spectra on the Southwest Atlantic: Case studies in tropical and subtropical areas [PDF]
This thesis is centered on the application of the Normalized Biomass Size Spectra (NBSS) theory to the study of plankton systems in shelf and oceanic areas of the tropical and subtropical Southwest Atlantic. I evaluated NBSS parameters over different environmental settings and their utility as proxies for system in Brazilian waters.

Tropical islands are characterized by an abundant but fragile biodiversity. It is considered that sustainable development on tropical islands including the preservation of biodiversity can be accomplished only taking advantage of the skills of local communities.

ILLUSTRATION OF MODERN BENTHIC FORAMINIFERA FROMBERMUDA AND REMARKS ON DISTRIBUTION IN OTHER SUBTROPICAL/TROPICAL AREAS [PDF]
A scanning light microscope (SLM) is used to illustrate recent benthic foraminiferal species from surface sediment samples collected in Bermuda subtropical environments. Species illustrated here are the main foraminiferal species found in Bermuda lagoons, reefs, caves, mangroves, and ponds, but also occur in most subtropical and tropical areas. The SLM

Comparison of elevation-dependent warming and its drivers in the tropical and subtropical Andes
Mountain regions have been recognized to be more sensitive to climate and environmental changes, and in particular to global warming. Several studies report on elevation-dependent warming (EDW), i.e., when warming rates are different in different ...
