1. The north Brazil undercurrent and the wind driven hydrodynamics in Japaratuba submarine canyon, Brazil
Abstract The circulation induced by the wind and the North Brazil Undercurrent (NBU) in and surrounding the Japaratuba submarine canyon on the continental shelf of the basin of Sergipe and Alagoas is described using numerical modeling. The numerical simulations were implemented to determine the canyon influence in the local hydrodynamics and in the volume fl

2. Os Nematoda da plataforma continental ao largo do sistema estuarino de Santos / Nematoda of the continental shelf off Santos estuarine system
To assess the influence of Santos estuarine system on the nematodes of the adjacent continental shelf, the density, composition and generic diversity of this group were analyzed and related to the sediment type, organic matter content and phytopigments biomass. The sediment was collected at six stations, in the winter of 2005 and summer of 2006, with a box-c

3. Variabilidade subinercial das correntes na plataforma continental ao largo de Cabo Frio (RJ): observações / Subtidal variability of the currents on the continental shelf off Cabo Frio (RJ): observations
This work was developed within the context of the continental shelf hydrodynamics, with the aim of studying the subtidal variability of the currents in the far north of the South Brazil Bight (SBB). The area of the study is located in the vicinity of Cabo Frio (RJ) and Arraial do Cabo (RJ) (approximately 23º S / 42º W). Despite being a well known and studi

4. Benthic–pelagic links and rocky intertidal communities: Bottom-up effects on top-down control?
Insight into the dependence of benthic communities on biological and physical processes in nearshore pelagic environments, long considered a “black box,” has eluded ecologists. In rocky intertidal communities at Oregon coastal sites 80 km apart, differences in abundance of sessile invertebrates, herbivores, carnivores, and macrophytes in the low zone wer
