Recurrent frontal slicks of a coastal ocean upwelling shadow

Marine ecosystems are greatly influenced by the structure and dynamics of fronts. In coastal upwelling systems, frontogenesis occurs frequently by upwelling and transport of cold water and warming in sheltered “upwelling shadow” retention sites. Monterey Bay, in the California Current upwelling syst...
