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 ...

Dynamics of wind-driven upwelling and relaxation between Monterey Bay and Point Arena: Local-, regional-, and gyre-scale controls [PDF]
In north and central California, equatorward winds drive equatorward flows and the upwelling of cold dense water over the shelf during the midspring and summer upwelling season.

Harmful Algal Blooms in Coastal Upwelling Systems [PDF]
14 pages, 9 figures The California Current, Humboldt Current, Canary Current, Iberian Coastal System, and Benguela Current represent five Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) associated with eastern boundary upwelling regimes (Figure 1). LMEs are characterized by distinct bathymetry, hydrography, productivity, and trophically dependent populations.

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.

Improving the 14c dating of marine shells from the Canary Islands for constructing more reliable and accurate chronologies [PDF]
Radiocarbon dating of closely associated marine mollusk shells and terrestrial material (charred wood or bone) collected from archaeological contexts on Tenerife and Fuerteventura islands allowed us to quantify the marine C-14 reservoir effect (Delta R ...

Temporal variability of diazotroph community composition in the upwelling region off NW Iberia. [PDF]
Knowledge of the ecology of N2-fixing (diazotrophic) plankton is mainly limited to oligotrophic (sub)tropical oceans. However, diazotrophs are widely distributed and active throughout the global ocean.

Coastal upwelling along the SE Baltic Sea coast is a common feature, especially during the warm season. It significantly lowers sea surface temperature (SST) in the coastal areas, and, therefore, may be responsible for modifying meteorological conditions

Remotely forced nearshore upwelling in southern California [PDF]
[1] Alongshore winds in Baja California strongly influence nearshore temperatures hundreds of kilometers to the north at Point Loma, San Diego, California, on timescales of a week to a year.
