The location of diapycnal mixing and the meridional overturning circulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The large-scale consequences of diapycnal mixing location are explored using an idealized threedimensional model of buoyancy-forced flow in a single hemisphere. Diapycnal mixing is most effective in supporting a strong meridional overturning circulation (

Continued weakening of the equatorial Pacific upwelling annual cycle in CMIP5 future projections

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
This study explores the dynamics of the equatorial Pacific upwelling annual cycle under global warming using the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) simulations.

Persistence of coastal upwelling after a plunge in upwelling-favourable wind [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
AbstractUnprecedented coastal upwelling off the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula was reported during the summer of 2013. The upwelling continued for more than a month after a plunge in upwelling-favourable winds and had serious impacts on fisheries.

Topographic Hotspots of Southern Ocean Eddy Upwelling

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The upwelling of cold water from the depths of the Southern Ocean to its surface closes the global overturning circulation and facilitates uptake of anthropogenic heat and carbon.

Correlated variability of upwelling and tracers near the tropical tropopause [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tropical upwelling should exert strong influence on temperatures and on tracers with large vertical gradients in the lower stratosphere. We test this behavior by comparing three upwelling estimates calculated from ERA‐Interim reanalysis data with ...

The "African humid period" and the record of marine upwelling from excess ^(230)Th in Ocean Drilling Program Hole 658C [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Using a high-resolution ^(230)Th normalized record of sediment flux, we document the deglacial and Holocene history of North African aridity and coastal upwelling at Ocean Drilling Program Hole 658C. At both the end of the Younger Dryas and after the 8.2

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Verification of the Ekman Upwelling Criterion with In Situ Temperature Measurements in the Southeastern Baltic Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Upwelling leads to a sharp and strong decrease in water temperature in the coastal zone of the southeastern Baltic Sea. The quality of existing hydrodynamic models cannot fully meet the requirements of accurate upwelling forecasts.

Dynamic features of successive upwelling events in the Baltic Sea - a numerical case study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Coastal upwelling often reveals itself during the thermal stratification season as an abrupt sea surface temperature (SST) drop. Its intensity depends not only on the magnitude of an upwelling-favourable wind impulse but also on the temperature ...

Remotely forced nearshore upwelling in southern California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
[1] Alongshore winds in Baja California strongly influence nearshore temperatures hundreds of kilometers to the north at Point Loma, San Diego, California, on timescales of a week to a year.
