The inner continental shelf, which spans water depths of a few meters to tens of meters, is a
dynamically defined region that lies between the surf zone (where waves break) and the …

This review considers transport of larval fish and crustaceans on the continental shelf.
Previous reviews have contained only limited treatments of the physical processes involved …

The California Current System (CCS) is forced by the distribution of atmospheric pressure
and associated winds in relation to the west coast of North America. In this paper, we begin …

Abstract Using 21,406 hydrographic profiles from 1979 to 2012, we present the first
observational, pan-Arctic assessment of Mixed Layer (ML) properties, including …

Ocean processes are generally large scale on the US Pacific Northwest coast; this is true of
both seasonal variations and event-scale upwelling-downwelling fluctuations., which are …

We summarize what is known of the biophysical interactions that control vertical migration
and dispersal of decapod larvae, asking the following main questions: How common is …

The COPAS research center (Universidad de Concepción, Chile) initiated a time series
station on the continental shelf off central Chile that is used for multi-disciplinary …

The coastal upwelling region of the California Current System (CalCS) is a well‐known site
of high productivity and lateral export of nutrients and organic matter, yet neither the …

The subtidal near‐surface circulation in the Santa Barbara Channel (SBC) and on the shelf
north of Point Conception is described based on observations obtained during the 3‐year …

The results of a fine resolution hydrology survey conducted off the northern Portuguese
coast at the end of the upwelling season are presented. The most striking features were the …
