The intensified trend of coastal upwelling in the South China Sea during 1982-2020
Using sea surface temperature (SST) data from satellite observations and reanalysis, we revealed the long-term trend of coastal upwelling in the South China Sea (SCS) during 1982–2020.

The influence of coastal upwelling on the biodiversity of sandy beaches in South Africa [PDF]
Sandy beaches are often highly allochthonous, depending on external subsidies of carbon and nutrients. Despite this, sandy beach macrofaunal assemblages have received little attention regarding their response to enhanced primary productivity generated ...

What drives the spatial variability of primary productivity and matter fluxes in the north-west African upwelling system? A modelling approach [PDF]
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]
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
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 ...

The common origin and degenerative evolution of flagella in Actinobacteria
Species of the phylum Actinobacteria have long time been thought mostly non-motile and non-flagellated, in spite of their extraordinary diversity in morphology, physiology, and ecology.

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 ...

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 ...
