Plankton blooms in vortices: The role of biological and hydrodynamic time scales
M. Sandulescu, C. Lopez, E. Hernandez-Garcia +1
We study the interplay of hydrodynamic mesoscale structures and the growth of plankton in the wake of an island, and its interaction with a coastal upwelling. Our focus is on a mec…

Biological activity in the wake of an island close to a coastal upwelling
M. Sandulescu, C. Lopez, E. Hernandez-Garcia +1
Hydrodynamic forcing plays an important role in shaping the dynamics of marine organisms, in particular of plankton. In this work we study the planktonic biological activity in the…
