DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.646
Abstract: Nitrospina bacteria are among the most important nitrite oxidizers in coastal and open‐ocean environments, but the relevance of the genus contrasts with the scarceness of information on their ecophysiology and habitat range. Thus far, Nitrospina… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11273-019-09660-9
Abstract: Waterbirds have high potential as bioindicators of the status and functioning of estuarine ecosystems, because they respond to multiple stress factors in a wide range of spatial scales. The objective of this study was to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2017.10.016
Abstract: Historical and paleoseismic records in south-central Chile indicate that giant earthquakes on the subduction megathrust – such as in AD1960 (Mw9.5) – reoccur on average every ∼300 yr. Based on geodetic calculations of the interseismic… read more here.
