What drives the spatial variability of primary productivity and matter fluxes in the north-west African upwelling system? A modelling approach [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2016 A comparative box analysis based on a multi-decadal physical–biogeochemical hindcast simulation (1980–2009) was conducted to characterize the drivers of the spatial distribution of phytoplankton biomass and production in the north-west (NW) African ...

Upwelling characteristics in the Gulf of Finland (Baltic Sea) as revealed by Ferrybox measurements in 2007–2013 [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2016 Ferrybox measurements have been carried out between Tallinn and Helsinki in the Gulf of Finland (Baltic Sea) on a regular basis since 1997. The system measures autonomously water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a fluorescence and turbidity and takes ...

Wind variability across the North Humboldt Upwelling System
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Surface wind is taken as the primary driver of upwelling in the eastern boundary upwelling systems. The fluctuation of momentum flux associated with the variation in wind regulates the nutrient supply to the euphotic surface layer via changing the ...

Coastal upwelling along the southwest coast of India – ENSO modulation [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2008 An index of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the Pacific during pre monsoon season is shown to account for a significant part of the variability of coastal Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies measured a few months later within the wind ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Coastal upwelling is an oceanographic process that brings cold, nutrient-rich waters to the ocean surface from depth. These nutrient-rich waters help drive primary productivity which forms the foundation of ecological systems and the fisheries dependent ...

Coastal upwelling seen in ocean temperature data
, 2012 The phenomenon of wind-driven upwelling occurs when high coastal winds blow over the ocean surface, pushing warm surface waters offshore and allowing cooler, more nutrient rich water from below to rise up to the surface.

Coastal Upwelling on a β-Plane [PDF]
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1973 Abstract The β effect is found to produce a poleward undercurrent in a wind-driven model of an eastern ocean circulation. The model is on an x, z plane and longshore derivatives of the velocity field are neglected. The nonlinear two-layer model is time-dependent and is solved numerically.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Wind-driven coastal upwelling can be compensated by onshore geostrophic flow, and river plumes are associated with such flow. We investigate possible limitation of the northeast Gulf of Guinea upwelling by the Niger River plume, using regional ocean ...
