In this paper we attempt to understand how temperature varies in the twilight zone by exploring how different phenomena such as el niño and climate change may impact these ecosystems, putting into question their potential as climate refugia.
Variability in oceanographic conditions affecting Mesophotic Ecosystems along the South Eastern Pacific: Latitudinal trends and potential for climate refugia
Oceans have been changing at the fastest pace since the beginning of the Holocene. The South Eastern Pacific (SEP), including the Humboldt Upwelling E…

More than 2 million people could perish due to heat-related deaths by the end of the century.
Barcelona is likely to be the most affected. Madrid and Valencia are in the top 10.
If we act quickly, up to 70% of these deaths could be avoided.

Estimating future heat-related and cold-related mortality under climate change, demographic and adaptation scenarios in 854 European cities - Nature Medicine
Modeled analyses of 854 European cities show that net temperature-related mortality will increase because of an increase in heat-related mortality exceeding future reductions in cold-related mortality...

Hello world!

I think I will start by sharing research I participated in, starting with my first first authorship: www.frontiersin.org/journals/ear...

Explores the drivers of recent trends in the presence of low oxygen waters over the continental shelf off Chile.
Frontiers | The intensification of coastal hypoxia off central Chile: Long term and high frequency variability
Hypoxia is a phenomenon where dissolved oxygen (DO) is reduced to levels that are low enough to strongly affect ecological and biogeochemical processes. This...
