The Azores Confluence Zone
The goal of this study is to characterize the meteorological and oceanographic conditions affecting the Azores Archipelago, and explore their biological implications. The Mid-Atlantic region of the Azores Archipelago is under the permanent influence of the Azores high pressure system, thereby providing sustained Ekman transport that facilitates the convergence in regional oceanography. The west...

متن کامل“Biology, ecology and conservation of Mobulid rays in the Azores”
Mobulids are large migratory elasmobranchs, some of which appear to aggregate at specific locations and times. Due to their conservative life history traits, mobulids have low intrinsic capacity to sustain and recover from current threats globally, including directed fisheries, incidental capture, habitat destruction, pollution and unregulated tourism. Yet, although they are nowadays iconic spe...
متن کاملBees of the Azores: an annotated checklist (Apidae, Hymenoptera)

One species, Hylaeus azorae, seems to be a single island endemic, and three species are possibly native (Colletes eous, Halictus villosulus, and Hylaeus pictipes). All the remaining bee species are most likely accidental introductions that arrived after human colonization ...
