Upwelling intensity depends on wind strength and seasonal variability, as well as the vertical structure of the water, variations in the bottom bathymetry, and instabilities in the currents. In some areas, upwelling is a seasonal event leading to periodic bursts of productivity similar to spring blooms in coastal waters. Wind-induced upwelling ...
Acartia tonsa is a species of calanoid copepod that can be found in a large portion of the world's estuaries and areas of upwelling where food concentrations are high. [2] [3] Like many plankton common to estuarine ecosystems, they can live in a wide range of temperatures and salinities. [2]
This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the aldehyde-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds. It participates in 3 metabolic pathways: pentose phosphate pathway, methane metabolism, and carbon fixation. It employs one cofactor, thiamin diphosphate.
The Southern Caribbean Upwelling system (SCUS) is a low latitude tropical upwelling system, where due to multiple environmental and bathymetric conditions water from the deep sea is forced to the surface layers of the ocean.
Abudefduf troschelii, the Pacific sergeant major or Panama sergeant major, is a species of damselfish belonging to the family Pomacentridae that can be identified by the pronounced black stripes on the lateral sides of the fish. [3] Its specific name honors the zoologist Franz Hermann Troschel (1810-1882). [4]
Ocean warming has led to increased upwelling of oxygen-depleted water to surface regions, a trend that affects regions of the Eastern Pacific inhabited by P. capitata. The anoxic conditions created by this increased upwelling particularly threaten P. capitata individuals inhabiting lower depths of coral reef ecosystems, which are more directly ...
Sadie Sink is struggling to say goodbye.. While appearing on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon on Thursday, Jan. 30, the Stranger Things star, 22, opened up about the end of her time on the ...
Shelf-break upwelling and water turbulence increases the transportation of organic matter up the water column, leading to high-concentrations of crinoids like L. celtica that feed on organic matter around these shelf breaks. The species plays an important role in marine environments by taking in large amounts of organic particles and regulating ...
