High-Frequency Variability of the Surface Ocean Properties Off Central Chile During the Upwelling Season

High-Frequency Variability of the Surface Ocean Properties Off Central Chile During the Upwelling Season

The ocean off south-central Chile is subject to seasonal upwelling whose intensity is mainly controlled by the latitudinal migration of the southeast Pacific subtropical anticyclone. During austral spring and summer, the mean flow is equatorward favoring coastal upwelling, but periods of strong sout...
