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 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 ...

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.

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 377-399., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

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.

Effects of upwelling duration and phytoplankton growth regime on dissolved-oxygen levels in an idealized Iberian Peninsula upwelling system [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2020 We apply a coupled modelling system composed of a state-of-the-art hydrodynamical model and a low-complexity biogeochemical model to an idealized Iberian Peninsula upwelling system to identify the main drivers of dissolved-oxygen variability and to study
