PROSPECTS AND CHALLENGES OF RESCUING THE SHRINKING LAKE CHAD THROUGH THE UNITED NATIONS’ GREEN CLIMATE FUND by DAIYABU HASSAN MUHAMMAD

“…The most viable plan is the idea of an inter-basin water transfer (IBWT), developed by the Italian Engineering Company Bonfica which involves diverting about 4% of the waters of the tributaries of River Bongi in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) that discharge into the Atlantic Ocean through a series of canals and dams to River Chari (that feeds the Lake) in the Central African Republic (CAR). …”

La fase final de unas migraciones de larga duración: gallegos hacia Buenos Aires (1946-1960) by Nadia Andrea De Cristóforis

“…Finally, we will postulate that the migrations of Galicians to Buenos Aires, after the Second World War, developed with a high degree of autonomy, with respect to the prevailing normative, institutional and political frameworks on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.For this study we have used the following sources: migration statistics of the Ministerio de Trabajo (Spain) and the Dirección Nacional de Migraciones (Argentina); libros de desembarco, actas de inspección marítima and official documents on migratory policies of peronism (Archivo General de la Nación, Buenos Aires); records of the Comisión Católica Española de Migración de La Coruña (Arquivo da Emigración Galega, Santiago de Compostela); documents of the Archivo General de la Administración (Alcalá de Henares) and the Archivo del Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores (Madrid); newspapers of the time (Faro de Vigo or Nuevo Correo, among others) and writings of officials and politicians from the mid-20th century (Martí Bufill or Vicente Borregón Ribes).…”

An extreme North Atlantic Oscillation event drove the pelagic Sargassum tipping point by Julien Jouanno, Sarah Berthet, Frank Muller-Karger, Olivier Aumont, Julio Sheinbaum

“…Among the hypotheses being debated about the origin and nutrient source to support the blooms are either: a) an increase in nutrient supply to the Atlantic Ocean via continental, or atmospheric inputs, or b) long-distance transport of a seed population during the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) event of 2009/2010 and stimulation of blooms in the tropical North Atlantic by nutrient supply primarily due to seasonal vertical mixing of the upper water column. …”

‘Heavy Waters’ of Punjab: A Hydro-critical Analysis of Bapsi Sidhwa’s Ice-Candy Man by Muhammad Ali

“…The study concludes that a) If Elizabeth DeLoughrey’s hydro-critical lens can aid in understanding the pain of Middle Passage victims and the defiling of the Atlantic Ocean, the same theory may help read indigenous texts to pay tribute to Pakistan’s water bodies, and b) If Atlantic modernity is metallic due to the residue it carries of British naval weaponry, then overt sexual activity taking place in Pakistan and India can be linked to the ample flesh that lies in the waters of the Subcontinent. …”

Influence of large-scale atmospheric circulation and Mediterranean sea surface temperature to extreme land precipitation: the case of storm Alex by Laurent Terray, Margot Bador

“…By contrasting the effect of Alex atmospheric circulation with an anomalously warm Mediterranean sea and eastern Atlantic ocean versus neutral sea surface temperature (SST) conditions, we show that the influence of September 2020 positive SST anomalies can explain a large fraction of the 20% residual precipitation over southeastern France and northern Italy. …”
