Abstract The Benguela upwelling system (BUS) exhibits strong seasonal variability in dissolved oxygen ([O2]), driven by upwelling and remotely advected water masses, and primary productivity. In contrast, its interannual variability remains poorly understood due to limited long‐term observations.

ABSTRACT The Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) of the eastern US differs from other offshore wind (OSW) development sites due to a unique seasonal oceanographic stratification regime. Fisheries there target migratory finfish and sedentary shellfish, the productivity and distribution of which are driven by oceanography with dynamic mesoscale features that can
