Coastal upwelling modulates winds and air-sea fluxes, impacting offshore wind energy

Coastal upwelling, marked by cool sea surface temperatures, modulates the wind stress and heat fluxes at the air-sea interface. However, the impact of upwelling on offshore wind power has been scarcely studied. This study uses satellite sea surface temperature data and a numerical model to examine h...
