Physical processes and biological productivity in the upwelling regions of the tropical Atlantic
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 …

Coastal trapped waves and tidal mixing control primary production in the tropical Angolan upwelling system
Eastern boundary upwelling systems are hotspots of marine life and primary production. The
strength and seasonality of upwelling in these systems are usually related to local wind …
