Journal ArticleDOI
Re-evaluation of using rhodolith growth patterns for paleoenvironmental reconstruction: An example from the Gulf of Panama
TL;DR: Differences in growth pattern and rate suggest that careful inspection of growth formation is needed before pursuing rhodolith-based time series proxy research.
Journal ArticleDOI
The morphology and structure of the Hannibal Bank fisheries management zone, Pacific Panama using acoustic seabed mapping
TL;DR: The rugose areas of Hannibal Bank should be primary targets for further research efforts as they may contain corals and their rugosity indicates that these should be some of the highest faunal diversity areas of the bank.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and identification of manatee individual vocalizations in Panamanian wetlands using spectrogram clustering.
TL;DR: This work presents a methodology to automatically detect and identify manatee vocalizations in continuous passive acoustic underwater recordings, considering the vocalization spectrogram as an image and representing it in terms of principal component analysis coefficients that feed a clustering approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Density, size, and biomass of Diadema mexicanum (Echinoidea) in Eastern Tropical Pacific coral reefs
TL;DR: Regional differences in the density, size, and biomass of D. mexicanum at 12 localities in 4 countries between 2009 and 2010 were determined to determine possible causes of these differences and to explain the presence of low densities and small size of sea urchins throughout the region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the dolphinfish Coryphaena hippurus (Perciformes: Coryphaenidae) fishery in Pacific Panama.
TL;DR: The dolphinfish industrial fishery in Pacific Panama is evaluated for the first time generating a growth model and examining fluctuations in annual total catch and in catch per unit effort over a four-year period (2006-2009).
