Digital Access to the Publications (1944-2008) of Professor Enrique Balech

 

Available at http://www.ioc-unesco.org/hab/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46%3Adigital-access-to-the-publications-1944-2008-of-professor-enrique-balech&catid=24&Itemid=20 <http://www.ioc-unesco.org/hab/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=46%3Adigital-access-to-the-publications-1944-2008-of-professor-enrique-balech&catid=24&Itemid=20>  

This initiative led by Dr. Rut Akselman and supported by IOC UNESCO, provides public access to most of the planktological studies published by the late Professor Enrique Balech. Some of them are little known and others are hard to find, even in specialized libraries. The great advantage is their availability in digital format and to have all of them in the same "place". Our intention is to incorporate more papers in successive stages.

While E. Balech is mainly known for his taxonomic studies of dinoflagellates, especially those related to the genus Alexandrium, a producer of paralytic shellfish toxins, many of his publications (more than a hundred) focused on floristic studies of plankton communities, which he applied to improve biogeographical and hydrodynamic knowledge. Planktonic communities were thoroughly characterized in Balech's studies, because he could identify most of the species of the taxonomic groups present in each sample, from diatoms, dinoflagellates and tintinnids, to coccolithophorids, radiolarians or heliozoans, when present, thus taking into account both the phytoplankton and zooplankton .

We hope this initiative will be of value to the scientific community.
