Driving mechanisms of the Port Alfred upwelling cell inshore of the Agulhas Current [PDF]
, 2013 The presence of a semi-permanent upwelling cell, with a surface expression more than 40 % of the time has previously been described inshore of the Agulhas Current in the vicinity of Port Alfred, South Africa.

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.

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

Responses of Summer Upwelling to Recent Climate Changes in the Taiwan Strait
Remote Sensing, 2021 The response of a summer upwelling system to recent climate change in the Taiwan Strait has been investigated using a time series of sea surface temperature and wind data over the period 1982–2019.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Central Australia's ngarrawa, or ‘mound springs’, are unique hydrological systems that serve as some of the only near‐permanent sources of water and continuous sediment deposition in Australia's arid interior. As such, they hold significant potential as palaeo‐climate and ‐environmental archives in a region where many aspects of past climate ...

Coastal upwelling in a warmer future [PDF]
Coastal upwelling helps set the physical context for marine ecosystems, and upwelling zones are among the most productive regions of the global ocean.

Quantifying coastal ocean anthropogenic carbon changes and their uncertainties
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Despite recent progress in quantifying anthropogenic carbon (Canth) in global oceans, coastal regions remain understudied due to methodological and observational challenges. Here, we develop and generalize a Regional rEgression–based Coastal Anthropogenic carbon estimation algorithm (RECA) designed specifically for coastal environments ...

Physical and Biogeochemical Phenology of Coastal Upwelling in the California Current System
Geophysical Research LettersIn the California Current System (CCS), changes in the phenology (i.e., seasonal timing) of coastal upwelling alter the functioning of this productive marine ecosystem.
