Halifax Harbour, a major seaport in Nova Scotia that is approximately 100 km southeast of the Bay of Fundy, comprises a deep inner region called Bedford Basin, connected to the adjacent ocean by a shallow channel called The Narrows. A study of sea level and currents reveals the presence of episodic oscillations in The Narrows, with a period of approximately 2 h. The oscillation strength varies from day to day and, to some exte...

The intricate interplay of oceanic-atmospheric variations has intensified erosive processes on sandy beaches in recent decades, with climate change expected to exacerbate these impacts in the future. Projections for the southern Atlantic and Pacific regions of continental Latin America predict increased extreme events and heightened impacts on sandy beaches, highlighting disparities in studies addressing coastal erosion and it...

The shoreline is the interface between sea and land influenced by natural, anthropogenic factors and climate change. The study of the evolution of the shoreline provides information to evaluate accretion or erosion processes. Shoreline erosion represents a threat to the safety of the coastal population, reducing the extension of the beach zone and making human settlements vulnerable to extreme events. This research presents th...

Hydrogen, electric energy production, and metal toxic bioremediation are some of the biotechnological applications of sulfate-reducing organisms, which potentially depend on the sulfide produced. In this study, offshore of Yucatan, the capacity to produce hydrogen sulfide using microbial consortia from marine sediment (SC469, PD102, SD636) in batch reactors was evaluated. Kinetic tests were characterized by lactate oxidation t...
