Automated detection of coastal upwelling in the Western Indian Ocean: Towards an operational “Upwelling Watch” system

open access: yesFrontiers 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 Limitation by Onshore Geostrophic Flow in the Gulf of Guinea Around the Niger River Plume

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Dynamics of wind-driven upwelling and relaxation between Monterey Bay and Point Arena: Local-, regional-, and gyre-scale controls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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]

open access: yesOceanography, 2005
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

open access: yesmBio, 2023
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]

open access: yes, 2012
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]

open access: yes, 2019
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.

Assessing the effect of coastal upwelling on the air temperature at the south-eastern coast of the Baltic Sea

open access: yesOceanologia
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

Wave energy assessment based on reanalysis data calibrated by buoy observations in the southern South China Sea

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2022
This study assesses wave energy by combining long-term model reanalysis data with in situ observations in a multi-island region. A buoy was deployed in the center area of the southern South China Sea (SCS) for 16 consecutive months. Neural network models

Remotely forced nearshore upwelling in southern California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
[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.
