Pulsing of the Benguela upwelling region: large-scale atmospheric controls

Holocene and deglacial ocean temperature variability in the Benguela upwelling region: Implications for low-latitude atmospheric circulation

[1] Mg/Ca analyses of G. bulloides and abundances of N. pachyderma (left coiling) from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 175 Hole 1084B in the Benguela coastal upwelling system document lower sea surface temperatures during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), Younger Dryas, mid-Holocene, and Little Ice Age in the southeastern Atlantic. Taking into consideration the possible effects of differential c...

Large Scale Physical Variability of the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem

The Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME) is situated off the west coast of Africa between 5-37oS, 0-26oE, and spans the three countries of Angola, Namibia and South Africa. It is one of the four major eastern boundary current upwelling systems of the world oceans (Hill et al. 1998), and although it has some similar characteristics to the other eastern boundary upwelling areas, a uniq...

Study of the models of large-scale atmospheric circulation system model on intesify rainfall in Ardebil plain

Atmospheric circulation is important to determine the surface climate and environment, and affect regional climate and surface features. In this study, to quantify its effect, the classification system, developed by Lamb is applied to obtain circulation information for Ardabil, North West Province in Iran, on a daily basis, and is a method to classify synoptic weather for study area. For that p...
