If you're thinking seriously of a short time in a developing country, you would probably enjoy this sort of job. Patients get better, and seem to enjoy doing so, so it is immensely rewarding in terms of job satisfaction. There is excellent clinical experience to be had, and the chance to become clinically more self-reliant. The medicine, however, is probably relatively elementary, and facilitie...

Human behavior is an underlying cause for many of the ecological crises faced in the 21st century, and there is no escaping from the fact that widespread behavior change is necessary for socio-ecological systems to take a sustainable turn. Whilst making people and communities behave sustainably is a fundamental objective for environmental policy, behavior change interventions and policies are o...

Sea surface height measurements from the TOPEX altimeter and dynamic height from Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere Tropical Atmosphere-Ocean (TOGA TAO) moorings are used to explore sea level variability in the northeastern tropical Pacific Ocean. After the annual harmonic is removed, there are two distinct bands of variability: one band is centered at 5øN to 7øN and extends from 165øW to 110øW, ...

Global warming threatens ecosystems through rising temperatures, increasing sea levels, drought, and extreme weather conditions. The natural balance of seas oceans is also at stake with recent outbreaks mucilage events all over the world. phenomenon, which has been frequently observed in Adriatic Tyrrhenian seas, taken place second time Sea Marmara Spring 2021. dividing Asian European parts Tur...

Please cite this article in press as: Kopps, A. M bottlenose dolphins, Animal Behaviour (201 An apparently vertically, socially transmitted foraging specialization (‘sponging’) in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) is observed in two adjacent gulfs within Shark Bay, Western Australia, where sponging has possibly spread from independent innovations. We designed an individual-based model based on...

The Baltic Proper shows many signs of eutrophication. Nutrient changes over time have been discernable, and also within the Sea there are large spatial patterns. Present study analyses the spatial patterns of dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus as well as dissolved silicate (DSi) in the euphotic zone for the period 1990-2001. The focus is on the spatial heterogeneity with the aim to ide...

ABSTRACT Phanerozoic limestones are composed of low-Mg calcite microcrystals (i.e., micrite) that typically measure between 1 and 9 μm in diameter. These microcrystals, which host most the microporosity subsurface reservoirs, characterized by a variety microtextures. Despite overwhelming consensus diagenetic, origin various textures is widely debated. The commonly reported texture polyhedral ro...

In this study, the abundance and properties (size, shape, polymer type) of microplastics (MPs) in sea surface water samples, collected during two sampling campaigns over 2018–2019, four coastal areas Mediterranean Sea (Saronikos Gulf, LIgurian Sea, Gulf Lion, Gabes Gulf) were investigated. Coupled hydrodynamic/particle drift model simulations with basin-scale high resolution nested models used ...

Abstract. This paper presents the first Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) Sea Surface (SSS) dedicated products over Baltic Sea. The SSS retrieval from L-band brightness temperature (TB) measurements this basin is really challenging due to important technical issues, such as land–sea ice–sea contamination, high contamination by radio-frequency interference (RFI) sources, low sensitivity of...
