Physical processes and biological productivity in the upwelling regions of the tropical Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2023
In this paper, we review observational and modelling results on the upwelling in the tropical Atlantic between 10∘ N and 20∘ S. We focus on the physical processes that drive the seasonal variability of surface cooling and the upward nutrient flux ...

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

Mixed layer depth dominates over upwelling in regulating the seasonality of ecosystem functioning in the Peruvian upwelling system [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2022
The Peruvian upwelling system hosts a marine ecosystem with extremely high productivity. Observations show that the Peruvian upwelling system is the only eastern boundary upwelling system (EBUS) with an out-of-phase relationship between seasonal surface ...

The influence of coastal upwelling on the biodiversity of sandy beaches in South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sandy beaches are often highly allochthonous, depending on external subsidies of carbon and nutrients. Despite this, sandy beach macrofaunal assemblages have received little attention regarding their response to enhanced primary productivity generated ...

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 ...

Spatio-Temporal Variation in Effects of Upwelling on the Fatty Acid Composition of Benthic Filter Feeders in the Southern Benguela Ecosystem: Not All Upwelling Is Equal.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Variability in mesoscale nearshore oceanographic conditions plays an important role in the distribution of primary production and food availability for intertidal consumers.

Nitrogen nutrition of harmful algal blooms in upwelling systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Blooms of toxic, or otherwise harmful phytoplankton species are known to occur in eastern boundary upwelling systems, coincident with the relaxation of upwelling in latesummer/autumn.

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

Physiological responses of Pocillopora corals to upwelling events in the Eastern Tropical Pacific

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Upwelling events can change the sea water conditions within few hours during several months on a seasonal regimen. These events are predicted to intensify due to climate change, exposing shallow benthic organisms to hypoxia and thermal stress, among ...

Springtime Upwelling and Its Formation Mechanism in Coastal Waters of Manaung Island, Myanmar

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Multisource satellite remote sensing data and the World Ocean Atlas 2018 (WOA18) temperature and salinity dataset have been used to analyze the spatial distribution, variability and possible forcing mechanisms of the upwelling off Manaung Island, Myanmar.
