Q2. What is the significance of the monitoreo?
El Sistema Nacional de Monitoreo de Arrecifes Coralinos en Colombia (SIMAC) realiza desde 1998 un monitoreo anual en algunos arrecifes coralinos del País.

Upwelling off Yangtze River estuary in summer
TL;DR: In this paper, a wave-tide-circulation coupled numerical model is employed to simulate the upwelling patterns in the Yangtze River estuary and adjacent waters in boreal summer.

Has upwelling strengthened along worldwide coasts over 1982-2010?
TL;DR: Of the major up welling systems, increasing trends were only observed in the coastal areas of Benguela, Peru, Canary, and northern California, and a tendency for an increase in upwelling-favourable winds was also identified along several less studied regions.

Physical Environments of the Caribbean Sea
Iliana Chollett,Iliana Chollett,Peter J. Mumby,Peter J. Mumby,Frank E. Muller-Karger,Chuanmin Hu +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a region-wide categorization of the physical environments of the Caribbean Sea (PECS) is presented, focusing on physical constraints that drive many aspects of coastal ecology, including species distributions, ecosystem function and disturbance.

Effects of ocean warming on growth and distribution of dinoflagellates associated with ciguatera fish poisoning in the Caribbean
TL;DR: The projected growth rates suggest the distribution and abundance of CFP-associated dinoflagellate species will shift substantially through 2099, and rising water temperatures are projected to increase the abundance and diversity of Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa species in the Gulf of Mexico and along the U.S. southeast Atlantic coast.

TL;DR: In this article, a series of interdisciplinary field studies was conducted on the Canary Island archipelago, which straddles the transition between the coastal upwelling regime and the warmer, oligotrophic waters of the open ocean.

The nature of the cold filaments in the California Current system
TL;DR: In this article, the velocity fields and water properties associated with cold filaments in the California Current are described on the basis of data from the Coastal Transition Zone experiment, combined with previous field surveys and satellite imagery, these show seasonal variability with maximum dynamic height ranges and velocities in summer and minimum values in late winter and early spring.

Pigment distribution in the Caribbean sea: Observations from space
TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution of pigments in the eastern Caribbean (east of 80° W) using a series of Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS) images collected between November 1978 and December 1982.

The evolving structure of an upwelling filament
TL;DR: In this article, the evolution of an upwelling filament was studied over a 2-week period by using satellite infrared images, and its thermohaline structure was mapped in situ.
