More from EJ Coast.
Why can cold, nutrient-rich water suddenly rise near a coast?
Coastal upwelling happens when winds move surface water offshore and deeper, colder, nutrient-rich water rises to replace it.
Read EssenceWhy can coastal water run out of oxygen?
Coastal hypoxia develops when dissolved oxygen falls too low to support many animals, often after nutrient-fuelled algal growth, decomposition and restricted mixing combine.
Read EssenceWhy do ocean waves break as they reach the shore?
As wind-driven waves enter shallow coastal water, interaction with the seabed slows and steepens them until they become unstable and break.
