Undercurrent-driven upwelling in the northwestern Arafura Sea

A three‐dimensional process‐oriented model is applied to explore the circulation in the Arafura Sea during the southeasterly monsoon. During this period, widespread phytoplankton blooms develop in a large area (300 km × 300 km) in the northwestern Arafura Sea. The model findings indicate that underc...
