Two sediment cores extracted from Laguna Nuxco, a coastal lagoon in Guerrero, were analyzed to provide a 4000-year paleoenvironmental record. Sediments dominated by shelly clay with low water and organic content, high c ...

Fisheries in Cuitzeo, the second largest Mexican lake, used to take place on the permanent freshwater East and Central Basins as opposed to the temporal, saline, and initially thought barren West Basin. The 1980 fisheries collapse forced fishers to look for non-conventional fishing products elsewhere in the lake. The West Basin’s temporal, saline-alkaline, and shallow water provides exceptional ha ...
