The oceanic response to high‐frequency local diurnal wind forcing is examined in a small
coastal embayment located along an understudied stretch of the central California coast. We …

Bays/estuaries forced by local wind show bidirectional exchange flow. When forced by
remote wind, they exhibit unidirectional flow adjustment to coastal sea level. Acoustic …

We investigate mechanisms that lead to asymmetry in the response of a stratified coastal
embayment following the onset of a uniform, steady wind that is blowing both along the axis …

While the seasonality of wind-driven coastal upwelling in eastern boundary upwelling
systems has long been established, many studies describe two distinct seasons (upwelling …

Spatial and temporal variability of diurnal wind forcing and the coastal response is
characterized for the New York Bight from February through May, 2005. This analysis …

Meteorological conditions during an intensive oceanographic observational program in May
through August 2001 along the central Oregon coast are described and related to larger …

Coastal sea level fluctuations in Onslow Bay are selectively coupled with local atmospheric
forcing variables. The coupling is strongest in period bands of 2.5–3.5 and≳ 10 days, which …

We synthesized historical records of wind, temperature, nutrients, phytoplankton, and
zooplankton to produce a climatological view of the biological response to upwelling in an …

We characterize diurnal and semidiurnal temporal variability of the spring and summer near-
shore hydrographic structure and circulation in Cartagena Bay, a small open bay in central …

A conceptual model of the physical behavior of a shallow (6 m deep) micro-tidal estuary
(Alfacs Bay) is proposed, based on the interpretation of a field data set, and subsequently …
