DOI: 10.1002/2017gl073106
Abstract: Slow seismic velocity anomalies are commonly imaged beneath subducting slabs in tomographic studies, yet a unifying explanation for their distribution has not been agreed upon. In South America two such anomalies have been imaged associated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/aqc.70112
Abstract: In the Southernmost region of South America (52°‐55° S), the native freshwater fish biodiversity is extremely low, and invasive species pose a constant threat. Environmental DNA (eDNA) has emerged as a powerful tool for studying fish… read more here.
