The future of coastal upwelling in the Humboldt current from model projections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Humboldt coastal upwelling system in the eastern South Pacific ocean is one of the most productive marine ecosystems in the world. A weakening of the upwelling activity could lead to severe ecological impacts. As coastal upwelling in eastern boundary

Modelling the impact of Baltic Sea upwelling on the atmospheric boundary layer [PDF]

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2014
Coastal upwelling, with a strong sea-surface temperature (SST) signal, is extremely common in the Baltic Sea during the summer months. Although the spatial scale of upwelling is small, its high frequency of occurrence in the semi-enclosed basin may allow

Comparative Analysis of Summer Upwelling and Downwelling Events in NW Spain: A Model-Observations Approach

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Upwelling and downwelling processes play a critical role in the connectivity between offshore waters and coastal ecosystems, having relevant implications in terms of intense biogeochemical activity and global fisheries production.

Environmental and local habitat variables as predictors of trophic interactions in subtidal rocky reefs along the SE Pacific coast

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.

Consumer diversity drives stronger predation in tropical marine communities

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Biotic interactions are predicted to be stronger in the tropics compared to higher latitudes, contributing to observed patterns of global biodiversity. While increased consumer diversity and more complex food webs are expected in tropical communities, the trophic dynamics underlying strong regional effects of predation are not well understood.

Projected cross-shore changes in upwelling induced by offshore wind farm development along the California coast

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
In California offshore waters, sustained northwesterly winds have been identified as a key resource that can contribute substantially to renewable energy goals. However, the development of large-scale offshore wind farms can reduce the wind stress at the

Climate variability and El Niño Southern Oscillation: implications for natural coastal resources and management

open access: yes, 2008
The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) significantly influences marine ecosystems and the sustained exploitation of marine resources in the coastal zone of the Humboldt Current upwelling system.

Coastal Upwelling Experiment

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1971
The International Decade for Ocean Exploration (IDOE) program of the National Science Foundation has funded a major field program to study coastal upwelling off the coast of Oregon during the summer of 1972.The Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE) is an intensive detailed field experiment designed in close coordination with numerical models and ...

Multi‐Country‐Multi‐City Characterisation of Heat Stress and Exposure in Africa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first continent‐wide, grid‐specific assessment of heat stress trends in Africa, revealing a sharp rise in multi‐scale extreme heat episodes and shifting population exposure. Findings highlight urgent implications for urban planning and climate adaptation.
