Cross-shelf variability in the Iberian Peninsula Upwelling System: Impact of a mesoscale filament
Résumé
Based on a multidisciplinary survey in the Iberian upwelling during late summer 2007, this paper analysed comparatively the cross-shore variability and offshore transport across the upwelling front and within a mesoscale filament. Along the East-West (EW) sections, transient upwelling pulses bring regularly cold, fresh and nutrient-enriched waters to the surface, triggering intense biological responses. Offshore advection by wind-forced Ekman drift of the successive fronts,
