Intertidal community structure and oceanographic patterns around Santa Cruz Island , CA , USA
Recent studies suggest that nearshore oceanographic conditions can have important effects on the structure of benthic communities. On Santa Cruz Island (SCI), CA, USA there is a persistent difference in mean annual sea surface temperature (SST) around the island due to its location at the confluence of opposing cold and warm ocean current systems. Over the course of a 4-year study (1997–2001) s...
متن کاملInter-annual variability of the Pelagic-Benthic coupling in the upwelling system off central Chile
The coastal region of central Chile (36 S) is one of the most productive coastal systems, characterized by a marked seasonality in the upwelling regime, that brings subsurface waters rich in nutrient and poor in oxygen (ESSW) into the euphotic zone. This oceanographic condition depends basically on the equatorward wind strength and is modified on different time scales, with the El Niño-Southern...
متن کاملEffects of the Blob on settlement of spotted sand bass, Paralabrax maculatofasciatus, to Mission Bay, San Diego, CA
The West Coast of the United States experienced variable and sometimes highly unusual oceanographic conditions between 2012 and 2015. In particular, a warm mass of surface water known as the Pacific Warm Anomaly (popularly as "The Blob") impinged on southern California in 2014, and warm-water conditions remained during the 2015 El Niño. We examine how this oceanographic variability affected del...
متن کاملExtreme oceanographic forcing and coastal response due to the 2015–2016 El Niño
The El Niño-Southern Oscillation is the dominant mode of interannual climate variability across the Pacific Ocean basin, with influence on the global climate. The two end members of the cycle, El Niño and La Niña, force anomalous oceanographic conditions and coastal response along the Pacific margin, exposing many heavily populated regions to increased coastal flooding and erosion hazards. Howe...
متن کاملOceanographic regime shifts and tuna recruitment in the western and central Pacific Ocean
This analysis aims to establish whether the ‘regime shifts’ documented for the north Pacific Ocean are seen in the western and central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) and are relevant to recruitment variation for tropical tunas. Quantitative indicators of oceanographic state are derived by multivariate analysis of physical and biological variables output from an ocean general circulation and biogeochemica...
