An International Consortium for the Study of Oceanic
Related Global and Climate Changes in South America

IAI Collaborative Research Network Grant 2076

The South American Climate Change (SACC) Consortium is an initiative sponsored by the IAI through the Cooperative Research Networks (CRN) Program.

The GENERAL PURPOSE of the SACC Consortium is:

To coordinate and enhance human and institutional resources in South American countries, in order to advance the understanding of the coupled effects of global change and climate variability on the oceanic, atmospheric and terrestrial ecosystems of the Western South Atlantic region.

Moira Luz Clara defended her undergraduate thesis at UBA
Her work describes the space-time variability of ocean-atmosphere CO2 fluxes determined by different flux parameterizations, and their relation to satellite derived surface chlorophyll variability.
Thesis presented at UBA

Silvia Romero, former SACC Fellow, has defended her doctoral thesis at Universidad de Buenos Aires.
Her research describes satellite derived surface chlorophyll variations at oceanic fronts and their relation to water mass structures and bathymetric characteristics of the western South Atlantic and adjacent shelf.
How many fronts are there?
Posted on 24 Jan 2008
A study by Barbara Franco and co-authors published this week in Geophysical Research Letters describes a previously undocumented multifrontal structure along the Patagonian shelf break
