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

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

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 ...

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