             abstract = "The purpose of this study is to investigate the vulnerability of 
                         the Brazilian and western African Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) 
                         to local and remote forcing, including the Pacific Decadal 
                         Oscillation (PDO) regime shift. The analyses are based on the 
                         total and partial correlation between climate indices (Niņo3, 
                         tropical South Atlantic (TSA), tropical North Atlantic (TNA) and 
                         Antarctic oscillation (AAO) and oceanic and atmospheric variables 
                         (sea surface temperature (SST), wind stress, Ekman transport, sea 
                         level pressure and outgoing longwave radiation). Differences in 
                         the correlation fields between the cold and warm PDO indicate that 
                         this mode exerts a significant impact on the thermodynamic balance 
                         of the ocean-atmosphere system on the South Atlantic ocean, mainly 
                         in the South Brazil and Benguela LMEs. The PDO regime shift also 
                         resulted in an increase in the spatial variability of SST and wind 
                         stress anomalies, mainly along the western African LMEs. Another 
                         important finding is the strong AAO influence on the SST anomalies 
                         (SSTA) in the South Brazil LME. It is also striking that TSA 
                         modulates the relation between El Niņo-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) 
                         and SSTA, by reducing the influence of ENSO on SSTA during the 
                         warm PDO period in the North and East Brazil LMEs and in the 
                         Guinea Current LME. The relation between AAO and SSTA on the 
                         tropical area is also influenced by the TSA. The results shown 
                         here give a clear indication that future ecosystem-based 
                         management actions aimed at the conservation of marine resources 
                         under climate change need to consider the high complexity of 
                         basin-scale interactions between local and remote climate 
                         forcings, including their effects on the ocean-atmosphere system 
                         of the South Atlantic ocean.",
