Linking Chlorophyll Concentration and Wind Patterns Using Satellite Data in the Central and Northern California Current System
The California Current System (CCS) is a highly productive region because of wind-driven upwelling, which supplies nutrients to the euphotic zone. Numerous studies of the relationship between phytoplankton productivity and wind patterns suggest that an intermediate wind speed yields the most product...
