Coastal Upwelling Drives Intertidal Assemblage Structure and Trophic Ecology. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Similar environmental driving forces can produce similarity among geographically distant ecosystems. Coastal oceanic upwelling, for example, has been associated with elevated biomass and abundance patterns of certain functional groups, e.g., corticated ...

Mapping the Coastal Upwelling East of Taiwan Using Geostationary Satellite Data
Remote Sensing, 2021 Coastal upwelling is important for coastal ecosystems and the blue economy because of its large productivity and large potential for catching fish. However, coastal upwelling along the Taiwan east coast has received little attention from the research ...

Coastal upwelling generates cryptic temperature refugia. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 AbstractUnderstanding the effects of climate-mediated environmental variation on the distribution of organisms is critically important in an era of global change. We used wavelet analysis to quantify the spatiotemporal (co)variation in daily water temperature for predicting the distribution of cryptic refugia across 16 intertidal sites that were ...

Persistence of coastal upwelling after a plunge in upwelling-favourable wind. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 AbstractUnprecedented coastal upwelling off the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula was reported during the summer of 2013. The upwelling continued for more than a month after a plunge in upwelling-favourable winds and had serious impacts on fisheries.

Low confidence in multi-decadal trends of wind-driven upwelling across the Benguela Upwelling System [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2023 Like other eastern boundary upwelling systems, in the Benguela Upwelling System, the upwelling along the coastline is primarily alongshore-wind-driven. In contrast, it is mainly driven by the wind stress curl farther offshore.

Coastal Upwelling in the Western Bay of Bengal: Role of Local and Remote Windstress
Remote Sensing, 2022 Monsoon winds drive upwelling along the eastern coast of India. This study examined the role of coastally trapped Kelvin waves in modulating the seasonal variability of local alongshore windstress (AWS)-driven coastal upwelling along the western Bay of ...

Impact of the Guinea coast upwelling on atmospheric dynamics, precipitation and pollutant transport over southern West Africa [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2023 In West Africa, the zonal band of precipitation is generally located around the southern coast in June before migrating northward towards the Sahel in late June/early July. This gives way to a relative dry season for coastal regions from Côte d'Ivoire to

A novel approach to quantify metrics of upwelling intensity, frequency, and duration.
PLoS ONE, 2021 The importance of coastal upwelling systems is widely recognized. However, several aspects of the current and future behaviors of these systems remain uncertain.
