Natural ocean acidification at Papagayo upwelling system (north Pacific Costa Rica): implications for reef development
(2018)Numerous experiments have shown that ocean acidification impedes coral calcification, but knowledge about in situ reef ecosystem response to ocean acidification is still scarce. Bahía Culebra, situated at the northern ... -
NC10 bacteria in marine oxygen minimum zones
(2016-08-10)Bacteria of the NC10 phylum link anaerobic methane oxidation to nitrite denitrification through a unique O2-producing intra-aerobic methanotrophy pathway. A niche for NC10 in the pelagic ocean has not been confirmed. We ... -

(2019-02)Three specimens of the rare scyphozoan Stellamedusa ventana Raskoff & Matsumoto, 2004 were collected during a vertical plankton tow on April 2013 in a shallow bay on the Eastern Tropical Pacific that was sampled eight times ... -
New record of the starfish Ophidiaster ludwigi (Echinodermata: Asteroidea) from the Pacific of Mexico and Costa Rica
(2017)Ophidiaster ludwigi had been reported only from Panama and Peru. Here we add record of the genus and species for Mexico and Costa Rica; and, first time its bathymetric distribution (0-156 m) -
New records of gelatinous zooplankton from an oceanic island in the Eastern Tropical Pacific
(2017)Gelatinous zooplankton are an abundant and diverse group of animals in the pelagic environment. However, knowledge of species diversity and spatial distributions, as well as their ecological role, is scarce. We present ... -

(2015-06)Una nueva especie de raya redonda con espina, Urobatis pardalis sp. nov., es descrita a partir de material recolectado en las costas del Pacífico de Costa Rica. Esta nueva especie difiere de sus congéneres por el patrón ... -
Occurrence of the tripodfish Bathypterois ventralis (Aulopiformes: Ipnopidae) in the Pacific coast of Costa Rica
(2015-05)Between 1990 and 1992, 2 adult specimens of the ventrad spiderfish, Bathypterois ventralis Garman 1899, were collected at depths between 637 and 880 m off the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. These specimens constitute the ... -
One year weekly dynamics of limnological conditions and phytoplankton in Lake Bonilla, Costa Rica
(2016)The detailed response of tropical lake phytoplankton to weather variations has been little studied, but it seems that composition varies in response to rain and wind variability over the course of the year. In order to ... -
Pesca artesanal en Bahía Salinas, Guanacaste: factores ambientales y socioeconómicos relevantes para su gestión
(2013)La comunidad de El Jobo es una zona dedicada de forma exclusiva a la pesca artesanal. No obstante, presenta capturas por unidad de esfuerzo muy bajas durante todo el año, a pesar de mostrar un afloramiento costero que ... -
Polychaetes associated with decaying wood in Térraba mangrove, South Pacific, Costa Rica

Rapid bioerosion in a tropical upwelling coral reef
(2018)Coral reefs persist in an accretion-erosion balance, which is critical for understanding the natural variability of sediment production, reef accretion, and their effects on the carbonate budget. Bioerosion (i.e. biodegradation ... -
Reef flattening effects on total richness and species responses in the Caribbean
(2015-09-06)1. There has been ongoing flattening of Caribbean coral reefs with the loss of habitat having severe implications for these systems. Complexity and its structural components are important to fish species richness and ... -
