When the tiny help the mighty: facilitation between two introduced species, a solitary ascidian and a macroalga in northern Patagonia, Argentina
(Springer, 2017-09)
Facilitation is recognized as one of the mechanisms by which nonnative species are integrated into new assemblages. The solitary ascidian Styela clava and the macroalga Undaria pinnatifida were introduced to San Antonio ...
Attachment features of mytilids in ecosystems with mobile substrate: Brachidontes rodriguezii in San Antonio Bay (Patagonia, Argentina)
(Cambridge University Press, 2016-11-07)
The force required to dislodge mussels from the substrate is known as attachment strength. This feature has been mostly studied in mytilids inhabiting the intertidal of consolidated rocky substrates, whereas it has been ...
Geochemical processes controlling the distribution and concentration of metals in soils from a Patagonian (Argentina) salt marsh affected by mining residues
(Elsevier Science, 2017-10)
Heavy metal pollution that affects salt marshes is a major environmental concern due to its toxic nature, persistence, and potential risk to organisms and to human health. Mining waste deposits originated four decades ago, ...
Mechanism of removal and retention of heavy metals from the acid mine drainage to coastal wetland in the Patagonian marsh
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-05)
The attenuation of the acid mine drainage is one of the most important environmental challenges facing the mining industry worldwide. Mining waste deposits from an ancient metallurgical extraction of heavy metals were found ...
Accumulation and distribution of trace metals within soils and the austral cordgrass Spartina densiflora in a Patagonian salt marsh
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2015-12)
Concentrations of Cd, Cu, Fe, Pb, and Zn were determined in soils and in below- and above-ground structures of Spartina densiflora in a Patagonian salt marsh (San Antonio, Río Negro, Argentina). Also, the relationship ...
Potential mobility assessment of metals in salt marsh sediments from San Antonio Bay
(Springer, 2019-12-06)
The BCR method was applied on sediments from the salt marsh of San Antonio Bay (SAB). It presents several channels among which the Encerrado is the most important and is impacted by abandoned mining wastes. The pseudototal ...
Spatial and seasonal distributions of Callinectes danae (Decapoda, Portunidae) in Ubatuba Bay, São Paulo, Brazil
(Crustacean Soc, 2001-05-01)
The spatial and seasonal distributions of Callinectes danae Smith, 1869, in Ubatuba Bay, São Paulo, Brazil, were investigated as a part of a broad study on the general biology of portunids along the northern coast of São ...
