The Patagonian shelf is one of the most productive and dynamic continental shelves of the
world. Changes in the environmental conditions affect productivity, species population sizes …

Coastal regions are sectors where human activities impact the marine ecosystem, and if
necessary control measures are not taken, they can generate negative consequences for …

Coastal upwelling is a known mechanism that generates favorable conditions for marine life.
In this paper, we evaluate the conditions for the development of coastal upwelling in the San …

We assessed seasonal and spatial variability of seawater quality and bacterial pollution in
two sewage-impacted and two reference rocky shores in the area of Comodoro Rivadavia …

The influence of the phytoplankton community in the light absorption budget was quantified
in coastal waters of the North region of the San Jorge Gulf (Argentinian Patagonia). The …

The aim of the present work is to analyse the variations of Sea Surface Temperature (SST)
and Anomaly of Sea Surface Temperature (ASST) using more than thirty years of satellite …

The occurrence of harmful algal blooms (HABs) is a global problem, and particularly in San
Jorge Gulf (SJG), Argentina, which supports important fisheries, HABs represent a risk to …

Coastal oceanographic processes, like up-and downwelling, topographic fronts, etc., have
consequences in biological communities. In some cases, these processes show up as …

In order to assess the relevance of sporadic upwelling events on primary productivity, the
availability of nitrogen (N) sources and their uptake by phytoplankton were studied …

Little is known about the base of the food web that could support the high productivity and
marine biodiversity found in San Jorge Gulf, Patagonia, Argentina. Here we examine the key …
