Bays in coastal upwelling regions are physically driven and biochemically fueled by their
interaction with open coastal waters. Wind-driven flow over the shelf imposes a circulation in …

The papers in this special issue feature state-of-the-art approaches to understanding the
physical processes related to sediment transport and geomorphology of complex coastal …

Along the Pacific coast of North America, from Alaska to Mexico, harmful algal blooms
(HABs) have caused losses to natural resources and coastal economies, and have resulted …

The upwelling systems of the eastern boundaries of the world's oceans are susceptible to
harmful algal blooms (HABs) because they are highly productive, nutrient-rich environments …

The intermittent upwelling hypothesis (IUH) predicts that the strength of ecological subsidies,
organismal growth responses, and species interactions will vary unimodally along a …

Due to spatio-temporal variability of lower trophic-level productivity along the California
Current Ecosystem (CCE), predators must be capable of switching prey or foraging areas in …

The relationship between marine reserve design and metapopulation persistence has been
analyzed only for cases of spatially homogenous advective-diffusive larval dispersal …

Ecosystems are shaped by processes occurring and interacting over multiple temporal and
spatial scales. Theory suggests such complexity can be simplified by focusing on processes …

In the coastal waters off northern California, seasonal wind-driven upwelling supplies
abundant nutrients to be processed by phytoplankton productivity. As part of the Coastal …

Seasonal upwelling is responsible for the biologically rich and productive ecosystems of
coastal eastern boundary currents. In most studies of physical–biological interactions in …
