Compostos orgânicos em sedimentos marinhos: uma viagem ao fundo do Oceano Atlântico Norte

The present study investigates the origin and distribution of several classes of organic compounds present in recently deposited abyssal sediments in the North East Atlantic Ocean. Six cores were sampled (multicorer) along 20ºW longitude as part of the UK's Biogeochemical Ocean Flux Study (BOFS). The sediments underlie diverse water columns, ranging from the Iceland Basin, an area of high primary productivity but presumed low aeolian inputs, to an area off West Africa characterized by oligotrophic and upwelling waters and high aeolian input. Concentration of predominantly marine (e.g. sterols and alkenones) and terrestrial (n-alkanes) compounds showed remarkable changes along the transect.

Desigualdad, crisis y política de la rabia: la reconfiguracion de las clases sociales poscrisis en el Atlántico Norte (Otros Temas)

El artículo es un análisis de la crisis económica que mira hacia sus efectos sobre las relaciones de clase social. Se comprueba que la desigualdad ha crecido de manera importante en Norte América y Gran Bretaña en la época neoliberal, y se sugiere que, desde la perspectiva del consenso político actual, la tendencia se agudiza. El posible efecto sobre el orden social poscrisis y su impacto sobre la política, están en discusión.

Transporte y almacenamiento de CO2 antropogénico en el Atlántico Norte Tropical

[ES]El aumento de la concentración de CO2 en la atmósfera debido a la emisión por parte de la humanidad esta siendo parcialmente amortiguada gracias a la absorción de ese CO2 por el océano. El CO2 es captado a través de la interfase atmósfera-océano y posteriormente la circulación oceánica lo distribuye en el océano interior. Las mayores tasas de acumulación de carbono antropogénico se detectan en el Atlántico Norte por ello este trabajo está enfocado en estudiar cómo la circulación del Atlántico Norte redistribuye este carbono de origen humano en el océano interior

The impact of North Atlantic Oscillation on the atmospheric pollutant variability in the Porto region, Portugal

The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is an important large-scale atmospheric circulation that influences the European countries climate. This study evaluated NAO impact in air quality in Porto Metropolitan Area (PMA), Portugal, for the period 2002-2006. NAO, air pollutants and meteorological data were statistically analyzed. All data were obtained from PMA Weather Station, PMA Air Quality Stations and NOAA analysis. Two statistical methods were applied in different time scale : principal component and correlation coefficient. Annual time scale, using multivariate analysis (PCA, principal component analysis), were applied in order to identified positive and significant association between air pollutants such as PM10, PM2.5, CO, NO and NO2, with NAO. On the other hand, the correlation coefficient using seasonal time scale were also applied to the same data. The results of PCA analysis present a general negative significant association between the total precipitation and NAO, in Factor 1 and 2 (explaining around 70% of the variance), presented in the years of 2002, 2004 and 2005. During the same years, some air pollutants (such as PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NOx and CO) present also a positive association with NAO. The O3 shows as well a positive association with NAP during 2002 and 2004, at 2nd Factor, explaining 30% of the variance. From the seasonal analysis using correlation coefficient, it was found significant correlation between PM10 (0.72., p<0.05, in 2002), PM2.5 (0 74, p<0.05, in 2004), and SO2 (0.78, p<0.01, in 2002) with NAO during March-December (no winter period) period. Significant associations between air pollutants and NAO were also verified in the winter period (December to April) mainly with ozone (2005, r=-0.55, p.<0.01). Once that human health and hospital morbidities may be affected by air pollution, the results suggest that NAO forecast can be an important tool to prevent them, in the Iberian Peninsula and specially Portugal.
