Wind shear and differential upwelling along the South Western tip of Africa
Along the SW tip of Africa (30-35° S, 17-20° E) topographic irregularities shear the wind stress field giving rise to coastal upwelling with an alongshore variability. The relationship between wind shear and differential upwelling is established using a blend of oceanographic and meteorological inve...
